Good basis of general culture
Oral
The course aims to make students reflect on the relationship between language, culture and territory as an example of the application of the fundamental themes of linguistics to specific cases of study.
Starting from the fundamental notions of linguistics, the course will focus in particular on the themes and forms of diatopic variation and on the relationship between languages and the territory: their diffusion, variation, sociolinguistic processes linked to multilingualism. Particular attention will be paid to the linguistic situation in Sardinia.
