Advanced Latin Translation Reader classical curriculum 1 CFU Lecturer: Arianna Fecit Period: 1st semester Lessons start: to be defined Time and location: to be defined To register go to the classroomweb https://2025.aulaweb.unige.it/course/view.php?id=6475 and follow the directions. Target group:this lecture series is mainly dedicated to those enrolled in the 2nd year of the classical curriculum. PRESENTATION The translation of an ancient literary text is a complex problem, which requires us to disentangle the source and target languages, rules and exceptions, form and content, until we can identify the most suitable one from the shortlist of admissible solutions. The workshop and dialectical approach of the Reader will enable participants to face this challenge with awareness. FORMATIONAL OBJECTIVES AND LEARNING OUTCOMES The activities of the Advanced Latin Translation Lectureship are aimed at enabling students to acquire the method of analysis necessary to translate and interpret texts of Latin literature of medium-high complexity. Participation in the activities of the Lectureship will enable students to acquire: . the ability to analyse the morphosyntactic structures of texts of ancient Latin literature of medium-high complexity the ability to understand the meaning of Latin prose passages of medium-high difficulty. the ability to recognise and interpret the linguistic-stylistic characteristics of the main authors and genres of Latin prose the ability to render appropriately in Italian, from the point of view of syntactic and lexical choices, texts of ancient Latin literature of medium-high complexity. The ability to read and understand the linguistic and stylistic characteristics of ancient Latin prose. a greater awareness of one's own translation choices. PREREQUISITES The lectureship presupposes a good previous knowledge of Latin, which the student will have acquired in his or her previous schooling or by attending the basic level Latin lectureship. DIDACTICAL METHODS The Lectureship will be organised in a workshop mode: the proposed Latin passages will be discussed and translated collaboratively, in order to distinguish between inadmissible translations, admissible translations and optimal translations. The focus will be not only on morpho-syntactic structures (which, if necessary, will be reviewed), but also on the lexical and stylistic-rhetorical dimensions. The Lectureship will make use of an AulaWeb page, to which participating students are invited to register. Students must actively attend at least 75% of the hours to obtain a certificate of participation in the Lectureship. Programme/Content The lectureship will be devoted to the analysis, discussion and collaborative translation of prose passages of increasing difficulty, belonging to the main Latin genres and authors. Texts/BIBLIOGRAPHY All texts to be translated will be provided by the teacher via the AulaWeb platform. The student should have a Latin vocabulary and a Latin grammar reference, such as Marco Fucecchi, Luca Graverini, La lingua latina. Fondamenti di morfologia e sintassi, Le Monnier / Mondadori Education.. MODALITY OF EXAMINATION At the end of the Lectureship, students may, on a voluntary basis, take a translation test to certify their linguistic competence for the advanced exams (> 12 CFU in total) of SSD L-FIL-LET/04. Students who actively attend at least 75% of the hours will be issued a certificate of attendance, which can be used for Other Activities. classical curriculum 1 CFU Lecturer: Arianna Fecit Period: 1st semester Lessons start: to be defined Time and location: to be defined To register go to the classroomweb https://2025.aulaweb.unige.it/course/view.php?id=6475 and follow the directions.

PRESENTATION Translating a literary work is an operation that is often described as a hand-to-hand struggle between the translator and the text. Ancient Greek literature is no exception in this respect and indeed represents one of the most challenging tests. This Lectureship aims to place students actively and consciously in front of the challenge. FORMATIONAL OBJECTIVES AND LEARNING OUTCOMES The activities of the Advanced Lectureship in Greek Translation are aimed at enabling students to acquire the analytical method necessary to translate and interpret texts of ancient Greek literature of medium-high complexity. Participation in the activities of this Lectureship will enable students to acquire: the ability to analyse the morphosyntactic structures of texts of ancient Greek literature of medium-high complexity. the ability to recognise and interpret the linguistic-stylistic characteristics of texts of ancient Greek literature of medium-high complexity. the ability to render appropriately in Italian, from the point of view of syntactic and lexical choices, texts of ancient Greek literature of medium-high complexity. PREREQUISITES The Lectureship presupposes a good previous knowledge of ancient Greek. DIDACTICAL METHODS The Lectureship will have workshop and seminar modalities: the Greek text will be subject to discussion and collaborative translation (also through the support of technologies), in order to distinguish between inadmissible translations, admissible translations and optimal translations. The focus will be not only on morpho-syntactic structures (which, if necessary, will be reviewed), but also on lexical and stylistic-rhetorical dimensions. The Lectureship will make use of an AulaWeb page, to which participating students are invited to register. Students must actively attend at least 75% of the hours to obtain a certificate of participation in the Lectureship. Programme/Content Analysis and translation of (excerpts from) Theophrastus, Characters. Texts/BIBLIOGRAPHY The Greek text will be provided in the classroom by the lecturer and made available on Aulaweb. In order to carry out the activities, students will need a vocabulary of the ancient Greek language (the teacher can provide some); it may also be useful to have a reference grammar of ancient Greek with them. MODE OF EXAMINATION The Lectureship does not include an examination with a final grade. Students who actively attend at least 75% of the hours will be awarded a certificate of attendance, which can be used for Other Activities.
