ITAL 10.20 Before Facebook: Friendship in Italian Literature

What does it mean to be friends, and what is it that distinguishes this unique experience? How do people who are first distant from one another become close and connected? Italian novels, poems, short stories, fairy tales, screenplays, journalism and historical media will help us understand the voice of friendship as an essential human experience, a fundamental way of knowing the world.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
