ATTACHMENT B (p. 57 in the PDF of the Call), Research Line n. 3:

3. Medieval Arab Ecological Thought

 

The project originates from the conviction that recovering and reevaluating the "ecological" dimensions of pre-industrial Mediterranean culture, and the link between these dimensions and a certain way of thinking about political life, can help re-establish the link between humanistic studies and the search "from below" for real alternatives to the "unsustainable" exploitation of the territory and the environment. The project intends to study medieval Arabic cosmologies and their circulation in European languages up to the modern age.

In particular, the project envisages:

(1) a historical study of ecological thought, through the recovery of the medieval Arabic scientific and literary tradition;

(2) the staging of the studied works for the general public.

Period in a company: 6 months

Period abroad: 6 months

Responsibles of the research:

Prof.ssa Samuela Pagani (gloriasamuela.pagani@unisalento.it

Prof.ssa Fiorella Retucci (fiorella.retucci@unisalento.it )

 

Candidates are welcome to contact the proponents for further clarification if needed.
