The course will be divided in three different parts, each of approximately 16 hours. In the first part, we will analyse two classical philosophical currents, the Scepticism and the Cynism along with one religious current, the Manichaeism. We will illustrate in details what were the dynamics and the modalities through which such doctrines were presented to the world. In the second part, we will analyse some literary works that have the ambition to propose a peculiar prospective on reality; here as well the professor will focus on the decisive role of the communication in presenting a view that is not shared by the most. In the third part, the course will analyse actual footages of famous speeches by modern politicians who radically diverge in form and content. Last but not least, the course will not neglect the traditional cinematography and classic theatrical production, as far as they propose a clear and defined vision of the world and a well-defined form to present their vision.
