Università Roma Tre

Objectives

The course aims to deepen the study of the Spanish language and culture. The aim is to develop communicative and socio-cultural competence through, fundamentally, the study of the Hispanic political world. The course is divided into two modules: Module I (Specialty Languages) concerns an in-depth study of sectoral languages (political, economic, legal, administrative and journalistic) from a communicative and cultural perspective; Module II (Political language) is focused on the study of political language and the critical analysis of political discourse. In this sense, the aim is to acquire the tools to decode political discourses, at a linguistic, rhetorical and cultural level to understand the meaning of political oratory, also deconstructing its ideological
meaning, and of power through the use of the word. Finally, it is intended to develop a critical capacity for autonomous re-elaboration of the languages of politics.
