The course of Archeologia, Storia dell’Arte e topografia dall’Alto Medioveo all’Età Moderna belongs to the group of humanistic teachings which characterize the course of studies of the Laurea Magistrale (Master Degree) of Scienze e Tecniche della Comunicazione.
Students will be able to know the outlines of the history of art from Prehistory to the Carolingian Age and the complementary analysis of the archaealogical Lombard complexes of that period. Among the learning results expected we point out the secondary capability of visual reading, the articulated communication using a specialized lexicon; the required skill is the comparative one, considering the proper geographical, chronological and cultural context. For the archaeological side, it is required the correct interpretation of a stratigraphy and the learning of the basic vocabulary of the branch. The frontal teaching is related, though it is not compulsory, to a seminary focused to the excavation methodology. It is preparatory to the excavation activity and to manage the materials and data acquired from the dig.
The acquired knowledge can contribute to the growth of the general skills of synthesis and processing of data and concepts derived from different sources.
The course provides the acquisition of cross skills, as correct use of language, communicative competences and development of comparative capabilities of judgment.
