It will take into consideration particularly but not exclusively the UNESCO’s World Heritage Lists (with an emphasis on the so-called "intangible" heritage), with a focus on the analysis of both top-down/institutional policies and the responses to said policies at community level.During the course, a significant number of case-studies from throughout Europe will be presented and discussed, amongst which the research undertaken by the lecturer himself in Italy and in the Czech Republic.
Notions of "social memory", "identity", "tradition", and "heritage" will be critically examined and discussed during the lessons, with the support of the pertinent literature.The provisional structure of the course will be the following:a): What is the cultural heritage? How do we study it anthropologically, and why?
b): The anthropology of memory, nostalgia, tradition, identity.
c): Various types of heritage and heritage institutions.
d): Conclusions.The students will be openly asked to actively participate in the interconnected teaching and learning processes. They will be encouraged to ask questions and contribute during the lessons and also given the opportunity to express their opinions voluntarily on the readings that will be handed out and read in itinere. Small groups of students (2 to 3 people) will also be asked to present and discuss some pieces of writing. Nevertheless, the main learning methods will be the course attendance and the individual study of the literature.
