Expanded Course Description
| This course offers an overview of Italian literature of the seventeenth and eighteenth-centuries, from baroque poetry to eighteenth-century theater. We look at a variety of texts that reflect Italy's changing cultural, social, and linguistic contexts as well as literary tastes, such as Pietro Della Valle letters of travels from the East, Galileo's scientific writings, Giambattista Basile's comic and often raunchy fairy tales, and proto-feminist nun Arcangela Tarabotti's social critique. We examine the Italian encounter with the French Enlightenment and read a comic play by Venetian Carlo Goldoni that includes different Italian dialects. Written assignments help students hone their skills in literary analysis and better understand the literary parameters of early modern Italy. |
