Public History

The course aims to track the main areas of application and the main historical communication tools outside the academic environment, both in the public and private sectors.

The course aims to give students the tools suitable for the primary training of future public historians, that is, researchers and historical communicators outside of the academic and scholastic fields. Therefore, specific professional training is expected, which can correctly and effectively apply the knowledge and methodology of history in areas that are as professional as possible. These skills will be acquired through a direct and continuous discussion with the professor; the discussion around the proposed sources will also constitute a moment of critical reflection and methodological learning. The teaching will therefore be the tool to include the study of history in the context of professional training provided for by attending the degree course in Humanities for Communication.
