- Learning outcomes
- Achievement of a fine strategy for scientific research on literary texts. This methodology entails a wide-ranging to approach the texts, involving critical editions, analyses on literary reception, inquiries on formal, linguistic, stylistic levels. As regards Linguistics, students will learn to describe linguistic phenomena from a syncronistic and diachronistic point of view. As far as Digital Humanities and Semantic Technologies are concerned, students will learn how to hybridize humanistic and computational methods in a variety of use cases. Such a stratified methodology clearly provides expertise and skills for a variety of "itinera" and professions: in particular for academic research and teaching, for teaching in high school (also in view of an ongoing update of educational programmes and lines), for publishing and journalism.
- Activities to be carried out by Doctoral candidates
- Bibliographic inquiries and text readings. Original research focusing on a wide range of advanced issues (including reading of manuscripts and ancient editions, consultation of archives, processing of digital archives and online data, analyses based on philological and linguistic perspectives) for the achievement of a fine methodology for scientific research on literary texts such as critical editions and the study of literary reception and history of ideas. As far as Linguistics is concerned, research activities will focus on a wide range of linguistic systems and linguistic descriptions. As regards Digital Humanities and Semantic Technologies, research activities will include: application-oriented projects (use case satisfaction); implementation of reusable software or middleware components; design of ontologies or conceptual models; empirical studies on data, digital content and users; interdisciplinary experiments or theoretical studies, e.g. jointly with cognitive scientists or philosophers.
- Research training activities compliant with the Doctoral programme's learning outcomes
- In the first and second year of the PhD programme are scheduled 30 hours of lectures planned common to all PhD students, in addition to 50 hours of curricular teaching (lectures and conferences, specific for individual curricula) and 20 hours of free choice subjects (participation to National and International conferences and seminars, seminars organised by PhD students themselves). The total is 100 hours of mandatory teaching. In the 3rd year there will be 60 mandatory hours in order to leave time to prepare the dissertation. As far as Digital Humanities and Semantic Technologies are concerned, curricular training includes state-of-the-art competence on at least: one humanistic domain; one computational technique; acquisition of adequate knowledge on a reasonable amount of hybrid applications, e.g. in literary, philological, linguistic domains (natural language processing, data science, cultural heritage). Lectures and seminars are mostly given by external professors both from Italy and from abroad.
- Internationalization features
- Foreign Students incoming: S. Mohammed (scholarship of the Egyptian Government); X. Peipei (China Scholarship Council). Students in joint doctoral programme: N. Brarda (Université de Paris-Sorbonne); M. Brunzin Ponte, R. Lapia, M. Ottaviano (Paris Ouest - Nanterre La Défense); S. Gazzoni (Università di San Paolo, Brasile); L. Giugliarelli (Université de Nice Sophia Antipolis); M. Grossi (Université de Paris-Sorbonne); L. Landeros de Casolari (Universidad Nacional de Educacion a Distancia, Madrid); B. Rejmak (Università di Varsavia); S. Trabucco (Université de Limoges). Joint doctoral programmes under examination: C. Pomarici (Université de Lausanne). For all students PhD board offers an international perspective of 6 months study in European and USA Universities.
- Expected research results and products
- Throughout the three-years course at least one presentation in a national or international Conference is expected, and the publication of an article in a journal of A/B level. A special acknowledgement for publishing the PhD dissertation.
