Key Summary
Introduction
Studies in Literature and Philosophy
This course assures all members a solid basic preparation in literary and philosophical subjects. Its articulation in three curricula allows the student to choose between three different specific training paths: the classical philological-literary, the modern philological-literary one (Italianistic, comparative, foreign languages and literature), and the historical-philosophical one (philosophy and disciplines ethno-anthropological). In all three areas the student will learn not only the fundamental aspects of the characterizing subjects but also a critical study method open to comparison with other disciplines.
