Objectives: LEARNING OUTCOMES: Make sure that the student master the main historiographic questions and interpretations concerning the topics of the program; moreover, that he knows how to use and work critically around the historical sources, in view also of the elaboration of the degree thesis.

KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING: within the framework of a solid knowledge of contemporary history, the student will acquire particular skills on methodological issues concerning historical research. Through the study of relevant texts of historiography and direct historical sources, the student will develop scientific knowledge of a specialized level.

He can use the skills acquired also in the study of other historical subjects. MAKING JUDGEMENTS: students will be able to collect and interpret data useful for the comprehension and analysis of historical documents and historiographic texts, to comment critically in autonomy the contents and for reflection on social, scientific, or ethical issues related to them, having acquired the ability to formulate independent judgments. COMMUNICATION SKILLS: students will be able to communicate correctly, rigorously and effectively information, ideas, problems and solutions regarding the main issues addressed, both to specialist interlocutors of the discipline and to non-specialists. For this purpose we will try to direct the student to structure and refine their communication skills, including through discussion and debate in the classroom, the assignment of seminar tasks. LEARNING SKILLS: the module should provide a significant contribution to the development process by the student of the cognitive and theoretical-critical skills necessary for an independent and specialized study of the historical disciplines. This includes the ability to formulate original research hypotheses and to know how to properly develop them.
