L-FIL-LET/14 LITERATURE AND VISUAL ARTS (12 credits, Bachelor's Degree)
The module aims to analyze the functions and the pertinence of literary writing, considered in the span of relationships that binds it to the most meaningful visual languages of the twentieth century and the first years of the new millennium: such as, above all, cinema and entire system of the figurative arts. These relationships will be established from time to time with respect to a range of social and anthropological themes considered to be of greater importance today, so as to contribute to an intellectual formation capable of being critically oriented in the complexity of our present. Above all, following a path of this type, the continuous intersection that is established today between expressive languages of different origin and function will be privileged, so that the student, at the end of the course, will be able to independently recognize the intermediate intertwining proposed continuously from the current communication system. To this end, specific previous knowledge is not required.
