This bachelor’s degree in Italian and Mediterranean Studies provides a comprehensive interdisciplinary learning experience and is taught entirely in English. The programme allows you to explore Italy’s pivotal role in the Mediterranean through the lenses of language, literature, history, the arts, and intercultural and geopolitical relations.
The curriculum is designed to foster your critical and analytical skills through a multi-faceted approach:
- History & Geopolitics: Uncover the political, social, and religious dynamics that have shaped Italy’s function as a crossroads of civilizations.
- Literature & Digital Humanities: Study how the Mediterranean has been imagined and narrated-from canonical texts to travel literature-while using modern digital tools for textual analysis.
- Anthropology & the Environment: Engage with pressing global challenges, including migration, deindustrialization, and overtourism, while exploring the relationship between communities and their environment.
- Archaeology of the Sea: Discover symbols and ideas that traveled across the waves, viewing the sea not as a barrier, but as a shared, anthropized space of connection.
The primary goal is to provide students with a thorough understanding of Italian identity by highlighting its historical, cultural, and linguistic connections with other Mediterranean countries. Moving beyond the borders of the peninsula, the programme fosters critical and analytical skills regarding the Mediterranean, its history and literature, and its geopolitical and intercultural dynamics.
Standing out from other programmes in Italy and abroad, this degree is truly unique in the European academic landscape because it challenges the traditional “Italianistic” approach by placing Italian art, music, and culture in direct dialogue with the broader Mediterranean context.
By transcending national boundaries, this degree offers an innovative approach to Italian studies, exploring Italy as the fulcrum of Mediterranean dynamics. This integration of language, history, and culture allows you to develop a broader, more contextualized vision of Italy and its evolving role in the global landscape.
