ROME 276 Making It and Faking It: History Wars in Modern Italy
This course will take the construction of memory and identity in Rome as a means of analyzing the country and nation’s post-Unification development. Through a combination of online class lectures and discussions based upon readings and visual images of key places of memory and identity construction in Rome, students will gain a knowledge of the capital’s key role in the creation of modern Italy, in addition to an in-depth understanding of the difficulties encountered in state and identity formation up until the present day. Providing a solid grounding in Italian history it will also introduce students to memory studies and the importance of not just history but the manner and nature of its construction, especially through monuments, to contemporary society and politics
If you are interested in this course, there is still time to register! This is a great opportunity to academically and virtually connect with our Rome Campus before you study away in Rome.
