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 DIL 2 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. “Literatura y Arte” is among the core courses of the of the "Foreign Literature" area. Through the study of literary texts and artistic materials that draw from different genres (novel, short story, poetry, theater) and forms (plastic arts, performing arts, textiles, audiovisual, etc.), the course aims to provide students with advanced skills in the analysis of historical, political and social phenomena of the Spanish-American area in order to stimulate independent thinking on contemporary cultural processes. By consolidating the knowledge acquired during the triennial course, students will be expected to apply methodological and communicative skills in the teaching field; to deepen issues of a translanguaging nature; to present individual or group analytical work in the classroom; to convey disciplinary contents at an advanced linguistic level; and to interpret transcultural expressions of Hispanic American aerea with a critical perspective.
