Description

Transnational Italian Studies within Transnational Modern Languages: A Book and Handbook Presentation

Addressing national culture as the result of forms of mobility is an intrinsic part of teaching endeavors, especially for nations with a long colonial history such as France or Spain. Yet, only a structured transnational approach can simultaneously embrace the complex workings of migration, imperialism, commercial trade, and exchanges of ideas that have shaped nations in contact with and under the influence of other nations. This transnational model is not focused on the inquiry into separate national traditions, but the study of languages, cultures and their interactions within a whole new vision for Modern and World Languages in the 21st century.
