Learning Objectives
The course intends to describe in a comparative and intercultural way the birth of the Italian and German national states, both politically, economically and culturally, starting from their birth in the mid-end of the 19th century until their completion in contemporary times, taking into account many common aspects and parallelisms, but also with obvious diversities.
