Programme

This laboratory is the result of the collaboration between the LM courses "Movements and trends in contemporary Islam" (Prof. G. Gervasio) and "Religions and urban spaces" (Prof. M. Giorda). The aim is to introduce students to the history of the representations of different religious traditions. Islamophobic representations, simplifications such as "Buddhism is not a religion", stereotypes about so-called “primitive” religions, clichés linked to key-words of historical-religious language will be the topics of our educational path. In addition to seminar lectures by the two Professors involved, the course will see the participation of external experts - researchers, representatives of local and international civil society, and personalities of Italian and international religious communities. Documentaries and movies will be an important tool for tackling the object of the course.
The calendar of meetings will be provided at the beginning of the courses.
