Seminar “The Islands of Paradise – Languages, Cultures, and History of Oceania”
Introductory seminar by Lidia Federica Mazzitelli, organized by Francesca Romana Moro
The seminar aims to offer an introduction to the languages, history, and cultures of Oceania, understood as Australia, Papua New Guinea, and the islands of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia. The objective is to provide basic knowledge of the main historical (pre- and post-colonial), archaeological, and cultural aspects of the region, with particular attention to linguistic diversity: from indigenous languages to colonial languages, to the Creole languages that developed in the area.
Attendance at all meetings and the presentation of a final report will allow students to earn 2 CFU credits for Other Activities.
