The second-level interclass Course aims at providing the student with an inter-disciplinar education that successfully unifies: 1) a well-structured knowledge resulting from a robust historical education with 2) the analytical rigour and the acquired attitude to abstract reasoning, which are typically deployed in philosophical inquiry.
After having gone through a deep and broad study into the contents of the historical- and philosophical areas, a student graduated in Historical and philosophical sciences will possess: 1) a deep knowledge of the methods of inquiry into the original sources (as embedded into their historical context of production and transmission) 2) a deep awareness of the historical character of any philosophical problematisation.
Such an awareness will be intrgrated with adequate knowledge of the methodological and epistemological debate on the status of historical and philosophical sciences.
On this basis, the course aims at building cultural operators capable of reading and interpreting – with professional skills and expertise - the historical sources as well as the texts belonging to the philosophical tradition.
The educational path will be integrated with internship activities taking place in cultural institutions and conventioned public structures. Students will be also motivated to exploit the Erasmus- and Ulysses programs for international mobility: many conventions with top-level European and Extra-european Universities are already available.
