The course will introduce the major theoretical questions connected with this debate and highlight the inevitable links with other human sciences. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES Approaching – through the analysis of historical texts and contemporary documents – major topics of the contemporary international debate such as multiculturalism, cultural identity and otherness, and the possibility for people and groups belonging to different cultures to live together. Students will focus on the "multicultural mind" model and on the concept of communication (both in its basic features and in its intercultural aspects). AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES By the end of the course, students will be able: to master the specific terminology of the subject; to treat and discuss in depth its distinctive contents and problems; to establish appropriate links between different contents; to interpret and contextualize the examined texts from a historical-theoretical point of view; to use the main concepts and arguments in a critical and personal way. TEACHING METHODS Lectures, reading and analyzing texts, guided discussion, problem solving. SYLLABUS/CONTENT The aim of the course is to propose the analysis of "classical" problems, such as the definition of identity and the development of intersubjectivity starting from both a personal and socio-cultural perspective, in order to underline finally the strong conceptual relevance of the ideas of recognition, dialogue, universalism, pluralism, East/West, violence, hospitality, and translation. Particular attention will be devoted to the phenomenological-hermeneutical paradigm as a model of intercultural communication. To allow students to relate themselves critically to the current paradigms of communication and cohabitation (or not) between cultures and specifically to identify their more or less hidden theoretical-philosophical assumptions, some of the major topics of the contemporary intercultural debate will be analyzed more in detail. RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY The reading list for this course is available on the Italian version of the web page. TEACHERS AND EXAM BOARD EDOARDO SIMONOTTI Ricevimento: By e-mail appointment.
