Notices
The use of emails cannot replace direct meetings, unless they are technical or strictly formal requests for information. Students are therefore asked to avoid asking for bibliographies, explanations of passages or philosophical problems via email. Questions related to issues covered in class are also preferable live - if not possible during the class itself, they can be asked during office hours.
Students are kindly asked NOT to SEND E-MAIL IN ORDER TO ASK:
- exam programs (it's all online on the teaching page)
- day and time of office (they are indicated on the teacher's online page)
- exam sessions on days other than the sessions of ordinary and extraordinary sessions in mid-November, reserved for undergraduates and out of course
- thesis correlations (it is good to come in person to meetings)
- moving to the student list during the exam sessions
- sending, scanning, making books available for exams: in addition to being an illegal practice, which would damage publishers, it is not the teacher's job to make available to students texts currently in circulation.
Due to the high number of theses currently being written, the teacher is unable to accept other thesis correlation proposals that must be completed before JULY 2023.
Office hours
Wednesday from 10:00 to 12:30
at Palazzo Capitanio, Secondo piano
