ITAL 141 SC - Italian History Through Film


This course will examine the important events that marked Italian history (1861- present) through the analysis of films produced during and/or about those times. We will not concentrate on film history, but rather on how cinema has portrayed history over the years. For this reason, the course will not explore well known masterpieces of Italian cinema, but we will instead analyze the impact of less known productions, films made for television or films that were not destined to foreign distribution, in order to analyze how Italian history has been translated into the popular imaginary. The course will be taught entirely in Italian. Meets Letters and Foreign Language general education requirements. 

Prerequisite(s): ITAL044 SC   or equivalent proficiency
Course Credit: 1.0
Offered: Occasionally
