Descrizione e obiettivi formativi
Il corso prevede l’acquisizione di una solida conoscenza della storia del pensiero filosofico dall'antichità ai nostri giorni, e un'informazione sul dibattito attuale in diversi ambiti della ricerca filosofica. L’offerta include: la conoscenza della terminologia filosofica e dei classici del pensiero filosofico, la padronanza delle tecniche argomentative, il possesso di strumenti teorici e metodologici, necessari per muoversi criticamente nei vari campi degli studi filosofici; la capacità di servirsi degli strumenti bibliografici tradizionali e telematici nell'ambito degli studi filosofici e in quelli affini; la padronanza di almeno una lingua dell'Unione Europea, oltre l'italiano, per la lettura di testi filosofici e per lo scambio di informazioni generali.
Il corso favorisce una partecipazione attiva da parte degli studenti e le lezioni sono completate da seminari, conferenze, incontri liberi che permettano di confrontarsi con voci diverse. Per i primi due anni, sono previsti sette corsi obbligatori, che ricoprono le tre principali divisioni della filosofia (teoretica, morale, estetica) e le sue epoche storiche: così si ha un'ampia formazione di base, condotta con attenzione ai testi classici e insieme con molti approfondimenti specifici. Per il terzo anno, tre o più corsi vengono scelti tra i numerosi offerti per la laurea magistrale: così si viene introdotti in una fase di studio più personale e originale. Durante il percorso bisogna inoltre scegliere alcuni corsi che connettono la filosofia agli altri campi della cultura: per esempio l'educazione, la storia, la letteratura, le arti, il diritto, l'economia, l'antropologia.

The course will focus on the historic and theoretical origins of the interaction between the human being and the environment, investigating its effects on diseases and Western medicine's approach to body and therapy. The case study will be the Hippocratic treatise *On Airs, Waters, and Places*, which is the first text in Western history where climate and environment are placed in relationship with population characteristics, social and political systems, and the development of endemic and epidemic diseases. Such an analysis will also enable the investigation of the origin of scientific racism.
The course traces the early stages of the dissemination of Aristotle's work (and of his Greek, Byzantine and Arabic commentators) in the 13th century, taking as reference point the commentaries and translations by Robert Grosseteste, master of the Arts and first master of the Franciscan school of Oxford, then bishop of Lincoln from 1235 to 1253, the year of his death. His commentaries on the *Physics* and the *Second Analytics* (first Latin commentaries on these works), his translations from the Greek of Aristotle's *The Heavens* and *Nicomachean Ethics* and of pseudo-Aristotelian works, as well as the presence of Aristotle in Grosseteste's philosophical writings contributed significantly to the definition of the early Aristotelianism and its convergence with the Neoplatonic tradition.

Introduction to Late Antiquity Philosophy by analysing selected passages from the Middleplatonists, Plotinus and Proclus. The course aims to provide an introduction to the Philosophy of Late Antiquity by emphasising certain elements of Plotinus' philosophy. The course will be divided into three parts. In the first part, some fragments of Medioplatonic thinkers will be analysed, particularly the Didaskalikos and Numenius. The second part will analyse some of Plotinus' texts that deal with methodological issues and other fundamental themes, such as the hypostases, which are the principles of the intelligible, the elements of anthropology and ethics. This will be helped by some extracts from the treatises VI 9 [9] (On the Good or the One); V 9 [5] (On the intellect, ideas and being); V 1 [10] (On the hypostases that are principles); I 3 [20] (On dialectics); III 8 [30] (On nature, contemplation and the One); II 9 [33] (Against the Gnostics); VI 7 [38] (How the multiplicity of ideas arises and on the Good); III 7 [45] (On eternity and time); V 3 [49] (On self-knowledge). In the second part, some elements of Proclus' thought will be analysed in a similarly introductory way. First part: 1. The thought of so-called Middleplatonism. 2. The Didaskalikos. 3. Analysis of some fragments of Numenius. Second part: 4. Plotinus' introduction and methodological perspectives: a) The attitude towards the past: Philosophy as exegesis. b) Dialectics. c) Dialectics within exegesis. d) Remembrance and intellection. 5. Hypostatic and architectonic structure of the intelligible. a) Principles or hypostases (hypostasis). b) Procession (próodos) and conversion (epistrophê). c) Intellect (noûs). d) Soul (psykhê). e) The value of the sensible and the beautiful: the "antignostic cycle". f) Matter. 6. The First Principle. a) Negativity and the limits of discourse. b) Modes of knowledge. 7. Ethical-anthropological perspectives. a) Human types. b) Psychological elements: passions and virtue. c) Self-knowledge and self-evidence in the Intellect. Part Three: 1. Proclus: The Elements of Theology and Platonic Theology (selected texts).

The *Don Juan, or the Feast of the Stone [Statue]* (1665) by Jean-Baptiste Poquelin (1622-1677) aka Molière, is one of the absolute masterpieces of western theatre that also set the standard in philosophy in the Modern Age. After Tirso de Molina's masterpiece of the same name (*Dom Juan. El Burlador de Sevilla*, 1616) and the previous numerous versions of the myth of the «punished libertine», Molière's work marks a turning point in the treatment of the figure, introducing into the play numerous philosophemas taken from the «new philosophy» of the time (Descartes, Malebranche, Cordemoy etc.) that enrich its intellectual depth and character. Philosophy is used by Molière with a view to producing comic effects. The Workshop will study the multiple aspects of *Don Juan* also in relation to its original posterity (Da Ponte/Mozart, Kierkegaard) and will focus, as usual, on the study and retranslation/adaptation of the original text and the staging of the *pièce*, which will also involve the study of acting technique and the fundamental elements of dramaturgy and direction.
GREEK GRAMMAR (for beginners): phonetics (pronunciation, and elements of history of Greek phonetics); morphology (article, noun, pronoun, adjective, verb, prepositions, conjunctions, etc.); basic notions of syntax (case syntax; final, temporal, causal, consecutive, hypothetic clauses; etc.); translation of (easy) Greek texts.
Introduction to Political Philosophy II A reconstruction of the fundamental concepts of political philosophy – including "justice", "freedom", "equality", "power", "sovereignty", "obligation", "legitimation", "citizenship", "rights", "constitution", "public and private", "democracy", "modernity", "normativity" and the nature of "the political" – with reference to Locke, Montesquieu and Rousseau, and with a particular emphasis on the recent developments within liberalism. Rawls's idea of a "political liberalism" and his notion of "public reason" will be examined more closely.
Pythagoras and Phytagoreanism in the Middle Ages The course intends to present the figure of Pythagoras in the Middle Ages as an emblem of the mathematical disciplines enclosed in the 'quadrivium' -- the fourfold philosophical path having its mythical founding father in the philosopher of Samos -- and as a charismatic figure of the philosophical-theological tradition that assumes the ontology of number as basis of reality. Starting from the age of Boethius, to whom we owe the very term quadrivium, we will retrace some main turning points of medieval Pythagoreanism up to the humanistic revival. The texts will be provided in class, in Italian translation. Non-attending working students must agree with the professor on the bibliographic additions that will be communicated at the end of the course.
The course will focus on the historic and theoretical origins of the interaction between the human being and the environment, investigating its effects on diseases and Western medicine's approach to body and therapy. The case study will be the Hippocratic treatise *On Airs, Waters, and Places*, which is the first text in Western history where climate and environment are placed in relationship with population characteristics, social and political systems, and the development of endemic and epidemic diseases. Such an analysis will also enable the investigation of the origin of scientific racism.
The course will focus on perception, whose problems and issues shall be particularly addressed (mainly the Argument from Illusion and the Argument from Hallucination), assuming both a historical and a theoretical perspective. The course will be divided into three main parts: 1) the debate between Stoics and Scepticism on reliability of perception and cognition will be briefly taken into account (8-10 hours); 2) key texts from Decartes and Berkeley will be read and critically addressed (12-10 hours); 3) the contemporary debates within philosophy of perception and epistemology will be examined (10 hours).
