The student will acquire advanced knowledge through: 1) the philological commentary of selected passages; 2) the analysis of the same steps by following different paths - linguistic, historical-literary, anthropological -, questioning each other on the 'permanence' of gender in specific areas of our culture (students will be an active part in this part of the course which takes the form of a research laboratory); 3) commentary on the passages of great authors of Latin literature in the light of the critical-exegetical writings of eminent contemporary philologists. The student will also acquire knowledge related to the master's level analysis of one or more Latin literary texts, with particular attention to formal aspects and seminar-like interaction with attending students.
