| This course examines the political, economic, and social evolution of contemporary Italy as represented in the visual culture of Italian cinema, introducing students to critical tools such as vocabulary of film analysis and theory. We will focus on the stylistic and iconographic developments of Italian cinema, with interdisciplinary connections to other modes of representation (the figurative arts and the oral traditions and literatures of both Italy and Europe). While learning to analyze film methodologies and classic genres of Italian cinema, from the commedia allitaliana to historical productions, and reflecting on film as a creative art form with important social and historical references (e.g. Fascism, gender roles, government corruption, globalization, nationalism and regionalism), students will develop essential life skills such as the ability to analyze and interpret data, as well as to communicate and collaborate with others in ways that take into account, and are respectful of multiple perspectives. All readings are in English. No pre-requisites. | ||||||||
3 hours. May be repeated for a maximum of 6 hours if topic is different for each registration and with consent of the instructor. Taught in Italian. Prerequisite(s): ITAL 200 or ITAL 201 or ITAL 210 or the equivalent or consent of the instructor.

| LItalia dal fascismo ad oggi "LItalia dal fascismo ad oggi: storia, letteratura, cinema, e musica." This course focuses on the emotions in relations to Italian culture, politics, history, and society, showing their important role in the development of specific policies and in the construction of ideologies. We will investigate representations of emotions in Italian films, writings, music, and paintings as well as the ways in which emotions are deployed in the artistic world to support of challenge existing social structures, political beliefs, and ideologies. For example, we will examine the complex interplay of emotions inspired by Fascism and the Second World War in the collective memory; we will discuss emotions in relation to national, personal, and gender identity (reaction to the socio-economic changes wrought by Italys economic miracle, when the traditional hierarchical roles within society begin to be questioned) as well as economic boom. Finally, we will deconstruct rhetorical expedients and emotions inspired by the encounter with the other through close analysis of contemporary cultural productions. While the course emphasizes the continued development of language skills, exposure to a variety of discourses and genres aims at advancing students socio-cultural awareness while promoting critical and intercultural reflection. Prerequisite(s): ITAL 200 or ITAL 201 or ITAL 210 or the equivalent or consent of the instructor. | ||||||||
1 TO 3 hours. May be repeated to a maximum of 6 hours. Students may register in more than one section per term. Prerequisite(s): Approval of the department. Instructor Approval Required This course counts toward the limited number of independent study hours accepted toward the degree and the major.
