Learning Objectives
Themes
The Summer School in Greek Metrics and Rhythmics intends to form a scientific introduction to the metric and rhythmic discipline, to the ancient musical culture, to the main problems linking metric to ecdotics and hermeneutics, with specific reference to the general principles of versification and to the history of the discipline, to the notions of ancient prosody, to the meters of recitation, to the lyric meters, to the structures of versification, to the transmission and critical tradition of the versified text, to the notions of ancient rhythmics and music. The survey on the compositional principles of the text will be put in dialogue with the analogous survey on compositional principles in iconography and in history of ancient art.

Objectives
The acquired competence, which arises from the practice of close reading and careful observation of the texts under study, in light of the ancient metric sources and the ancient tradition of lyrical texts, will contribute to the training of professionals able to study and understand, in a manner philologically founded, every type of poetic composition coming from ancient Greece. It will also allow the rigorous interpretation of the verses and the metrical arrangement of poetic texts. This specific skill can support both a more conscious teaching practice and a more specialized critical and editorial activity.
Contents and structure of the course / Syllabus
Activities of PhD Students
The course takes place every year in the first week of September, from Monday to Friday. This year it will take place from the 5th to the 9th September 2022.
It includes lectures, workshops, two Evening Conferences, a final exam and a concluding Round Table.
The workshops are moments of application and in-depth analysis of the topics covered during the lessons; the Evening Conferences and the concluding Round Table are experiences of direct confrontation with specialists of the sector, coming from Italian and foreign Universities. They also have the purpose of providing the necessary additions, for what concerns the historical-artistic aspects (musical iconography) and musicological aspects.
The languages that will be used in the course of the Summer School will be Italian and English.
Obtaining the certificate of participation is subject to the frequency of the didactic activity and to passing the final exam.
The structure of the course includes a total of n. 100 hours of training activities, corresponding to n. 4 credits for the scientific disciplinary sector L-FIL-LET / 02; the internal structure of the lessons will be as follows:
