This unit introduces students to socio-cultural, literary and sociolinguistic movements and authors that characterised crucial periods of Italian history and changed Italian society profoundly, in particular the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Risorgimento, and post-WWII Italy. The unit aims to broaden students' understanding of the scope and diversity in Italian Studies. It enables them to deepen and further pursue knowledge in their specific field of interest.
