The course aims to illustrate the process of formation and development of the Italian language from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century, with particular reference to the formation of the vernacular (and therefore with the acquisition of the foundations of historical grammar), to the relationship between Latin and vernacular and between Tuscan and other dialectal and regional varieties, the constitution of the literary language and of the written tradition, the establishment of the rule, the history of the linguistic debate, the processes of literacy and Italianisation.
