Objectives
THE COURSE AIMS TO DEEPEN THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED DURING THE FIRST CYCLE AND COMPLETE THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE PRINCIPLES AND METHODOLOGIES OF ECDOTICS APPLIED TO MEDIEVAL AND MODERN NOVEL TEXTS.
KNOWLEDGE AND ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND
THE STUDENT WILL ACQUIRE KNOWLEDGE AND COMPREHENSION SKILLS REGARDING
- THE CRITICAL-LITERARY PROBLEMS CONNECTED WITH THE CRITICAL EDITION OF MEDIEVAL TEXTS;
- TO THE METHODOLOGIES OF ANALYSING LITERARY TEXTS;
THE PALAEOGRAPHIC TOOLS USED IN THE TRANSCRIPTIONS OF MEDIEVAL MANUSCRIPTS.
ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO
- USE PALAEOGRAPHIC TOOLS IN THE TRANSCRIPTION OF MANUSCRIPTS;
- COLLATE THE DIFFERENT MANUSCRIPT DRAFTS OF A WORK;
- ELABORATE A FAMILY TREE (STEMMA CODICUM) DESCRIBING THE RELATIONSHIPS OF FAMILIARITY BETWEEN THE CODICES THAT HAND DOWN A MEDIEVAL WORK;
CHOOSE AND MANAGE TEXTUAL CRITICISM METHODS IN THE RECONSTRUCTION OF ANY MEDIEVAL OR MODERN TEXT.
AUTONOMY OF JUDGEMENT
THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO
- USE PHILOLOGICAL TOOLS TO FORMULATE HYPOTHESES, ARGUE ABOUT CONTENTS AND TYPOLOGY OF TEXTS;
COMPARE AND EVALUATE DIFFERENT TEXT TYPES, DIFFERENT TEXTUAL DRAFTS AND DRAW APPROPRIATE CONCLUSIONS.
COMMUNICATION SKILLS
THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO REPRESENT AND COMMUNICATE THE RESULTS OF HIS/HER RESEARCH IN A COHERENT AND PRECISE MANNER.
LEARNING SKILLS
THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO
- APPLY THE ACQUIRED COMPETENCES IN HETEROGENEOUS CULTURAL FIELDS
- CARRY OUT RESEARCH ACTIVITIES ON VARIOUS TEXTUAL TYPOLOGIES.
Prerequisites
IN ORDER TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE TOPICS COVERED DURING THE COURSE, IT IS PREFERABLE FOR STUDENTS TO HAVE TAKEN AN EXAMINATION IN ROMANCE PHILOLOGY AND LINGUISTICS IN THEIR BACHELOR'S DEGREE.
Contents
DURING THE COURSE, THE PROBLEMS OF THE TRANSMISSION OF MEDIEVAL TEXTS, THE PRINCIPLES, METHODOLOGIES AND PRAXIS OF ECDOTICS APPLIED IN PARTICULAR TO THE PROBLEMS OF THE EDITION OF A MEDIEVAL TEXT WILL BE ADDRESSED, NOT NEGLECTING THE PROBLEMS OF THE TRANSMISSION OF NON-CANONICAL TEXTS OR THOSE SUBJECTED TO A MORE MODERN AND TRANSMEDIA TRANSMISSION. THE COURSE WILL INCLUDE THEORETICAL LECTURES:
- RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TRANSMISSION AND RECEPTION OF THE TEXT= 6H
- STAGES OF CRITICAL EDITION= 5H
- HISTORY OF DIFFERENT PHILOLOGICAL METHODS= 6H
- STUDY OF THE MAIN FACTORS THAT GENERATE CORRUPTIONS IN THE TRANSMISSION OF TEXTS=6H
- THE EDITION OF MODERN TEXTS=4H
- STUDY OF THE EVOLUTION IN THE TRANSMISSION OF THE TEXT THROUGH NEW MEDIA=4H
- CASE STUDIES=6H
BUT ALSO PRACTICAL ACTIVITIES: STUDENTS, GUIDED BY THE LECTURER, WILL LEARN HOW TO CONSULT MANUSCRIPTS, TRANSCRIBE THEM, COLLATE THEM AND COMMENT ON THE MOST INTERESTING ECDOTICAL ASPECTS= 8H.
Teaching Methods
THE COURSE, HELD IN THE FIRST SEMESTER, INCLUDES A THEORETICAL PART DURING WHICH THE STUDENT WILL LEARN THE TRADITIONAL METHODS AND TECHNIQUES OF TEXTUAL CRITICISM AND AN APPLIED PART OF THE ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE. ONE PART OF THE COURSE, DEDICATED TO THE TRANSMEDIA ASPECT OF THE TRANSMISSION OF CULTURE, WILL INVOLVE THE STUDENT IN RESEARCHING AND ANALYSING THE VARIOUS PROCESSES, TECHNIQUES AND METHODOLOGIES THAT CHARACTERISE THE REMODELLING OF A LITERARY TEXT IN OTHER CULTURAL SPHERES, ESPECIALLY THE MEDIA. THE STUDENT WILL ALSO BE ENGAGED IN CLASS IN EXERCISES OF TRANSCRIPTION AND COLLATIO OF MEDIEVAL TEXTS TRANSMITTED IN MANUSCRIPTS, WHICH WILL THEN BE DISCUSSED IN THE EXAMINATION.
ATTENDANCE AT THE COURSE IS NOT COMPULSORY BUT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED FOR THOSE WHO WISH TO PARTICIPATE IN THE EXERCISES THAT WILL SUPPLEMENT THE THEORETICAL PART. A STUDENT MAY BE DEFINED AS AN ATTENDING STUDENT IF HE/SHE ATTENDS AT LEAST 38 HOURS OF THE 45 HOURS SCHEDULED.
Verification of learning
THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE TEACHING OBJECTIVES IS CERTIFIED BY PASSING AN ORAL EXAMINATION WITH A GRADE IN THIRTIETHS. FOR ATTENDING STUDENTS, THE EXAMINATION INCLUDES THE COMMENTARY OF THE EXERCISES CARRIED OUT IN CLASS AND THE CASE STUDIES PRESENTED DURING THE COURSE IN ORDER TO DEMONSTRATE THE ACQUISITION OF THE TEXTUAL CRITICISM METHODOLOGIES ADDRESSED DURING THE LECTURES. NON-ATTENDING STUDENTS WILL BE ASSESSED ON THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE THEORETICAL PART CONCERNING THE DIFFERENT PHILOLOGICAL METHODS USED IN TEXTUAL CRITICISM OVER TIME AND ON THE PRESENTATION OF A SHORT PAPER IN WHICH THEY WILL BE REQUIRED TO DESCRIBE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN A PRINTED WORK AND ITS RE-ELABORATION IN A MEDIA CONTEXT (FILM, COMICS, TELEVISION SERIES, WEB).
IN ASSESSING BOTH THE ORAL EXAMINATION AND THE WRITTEN WORK, ACCOUNT WILL BE TAKEN OF THE FOLLOWING
-KNOWLEDGE OF THE SUBJECT MATTER
-ABILITY TO SYNTHESISE AND CLARITY OF EXPOSITION
-ABILITY TO ANALYSE TEXTS FROM A PHILOLOGICAL POINT OF VIEW BY PLACING THEM IN A PRECISE HISTORICAL-LITERARY FRAMEWORK.
