20710101 - THEORIES AND TECHNIQUES OF STORYTELLING - LM

The course aims to analyze some of the recent experiences of literary and cinematographic narrative in the light of the anthropological assumptions that govern the general processes of narration.
The course aims to provide students with an in-depth understanding of storytelling techniques which, if they find their genetic place and privileged expressive modalities in literature and cinema, migrate from here to a multiplicity of disciplinary fields whose explanation procedures are fundamental for understanding current communication processes.
