- The course aims to develop the knowledge and understanding of the main theoretical and methodological issues in the field of cultural anthropology. - In particular, the course aims to offer students the analytical tools to "think anthropologically" and to apply the knowledge and understanding of the main themes of anthropology to the approach to different social, cultural and religious contexts. - The course will foster the ability to understand and critically evaluate the meaning of anthropological knowledge through practical exercises, by reading and commenting on the bibliographic references, in order to formulate judgments in a complex and articulated way, communicating the knowledge and processes that have led to their formation, and addressing topics with a high degree of autonomy.
