For both curricula, the international one and the one focused on the teaching of Italian as a second language, graduates in Languages and Literatures for Teaching and Cultural Professions obtain advanced knowledge and understanding in all the subject areas of their training in order to 1) consolidate and develop their competence in European and American Studies, with particular attention to their literature of specialisation; 2) deepen their knowledge of the two foreign languages chosen, with the achievement of a high level of proficiency in the first language and an improved level in the second language for the MULTIPLE curriculum or in the single foreign language chosen for the DIL2 curriculum; 3) reach enhanced awareness of the linguistic features of their language of specialisation, both from a diachronic and a synchronic perspective; 4) reach an adequate knowledge of the most advanced methodologies for the analysis of literary texts; 5) handle confidently the theoretical-practical tools for teaching and for translation. The ‘Exploring Spaces and Stories in English Literature’ course is one of the characterising modules of the MA programme. It strengthens students’ expertise in Literatures in English, refining their theoretical and methodological skills to achieve critical independence in analysing literary texts and phenomena. The course also explores transcultural translation processes and the “spatial turn”, which has significantly influenced literary studies in recent decades. By the end of the module, students will be able to: communicate subject-specific content at an advanced level; analyse transcultural translation processes; apply the knowledge and skills they have acquired to the promotion of local heritage and artistic-cultural assets. Requirements: ‘Literature, Arts, Media’. Note: for LM37 students enrolled in the international curriculum “English and Anglo-American Studies” (English – Anglo-American Literature), this module must be selected as an associated subject (“materia affine”) alongside the course ‘Exploring Spaces and Stories in Anglo-American Literature’.
