italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Dear All,
I should be grateful if you could post the attached notice, which my be
of interest for students looking for a highly specific MA course in
Italian studies.
TCourse announcement and web presentation, MA IN ITALIAN LANGUAGE &
LITERATURE STUDIES (LAUREA MAGISTRALE IN ITALIANISTICA, UNIVERSITY OF
PISA)
One of the world’s oldest universities (est. 1343), the University of
Pisa promotes a high-profile international MA on the advanced study of
Italian language and literature. One of three similar courses (with
Bologna and Udine), the Laurea Magistrale in Italianistica targets
talented students from the Humanities & Social Sciences area who speak
Italian at a proficient level (minimum B2).
The course boasts the contribution of world-class specialists on Italian
language and literature, Textual Studies and related subjects (History,
Philosophy, Latin and Romance literatures of the Middle Ages and the
Renaissance); particular prominence will be given to the
interdisciplinary study of Dante, in the eve of the 7th centennial
celebrations of his birth (1321-2021), and the other literary Crowns
Petrarch and Boccaccio.
Home of Italy’s first ever internet website (1986), Pisa boasts
cutting-edge technology for its students and is an ideal place for
academic study, with libraries such as the Scuola Normale Superiore and
the Biblioteca Universitaria. The international MA on Italian language
and literature (Laurea Magistrale in Italianistica) delivers for both
students interested in close textual and linguistic study of literature
(curriculum filologico-linguistico) and on literary theory and
comparative literature (curriculum critico-letterario): with some freely
chosen exams, students can have a custom-made MA degree that can fit the
professional needs of teaching second-language Italian in other
countries and/or to foreigners.
For those wishing to continue their studies, Pisa has a specific PhD
program in Studi italianistici. The University of Pisa runs a
minimal-tax policy for students coming from low-income families and/or
disadvantaged countries. Extra-European Union students will be given
special assistance in applying for visas and solving logistic and
practical issues. More info at webpage: www.fileli.unipi.it/ital, or

On February 12, 2018, at 14:00 – 15:30 CET a live presentation of the
course will be broadcast on the University website www.unipi.it
Questions from prospective students will be answered by Faculty and
administration staff.
