PETRILLI Raffaella
(syllabus)
The course will introduce the notions of: - "public languages"; - "public space"; - "public opinion".
On that basis, the core notions of the course: "fake new" and "hate speech" will be introduced. The explanation will always start from concrete cases, traced in the public discourse and disseminated by the different means of communication, traditional or digital. The two concepts will be illustrated by recalling the definitions provided by various scholars and examining their adequacy.
The lessons will proceed by examining the linguistic characteristics of fake news and hate speech, with the aim of demonstrating that they allow to define both, and therefore to recognize them and to develop adequate "counter speech" strategies.
The analysis of "fake new" and "hate speech" phenomena will also require their examination from a historical-diachronic point of view.
