Ha scritto Yves Bonnefoy che l’arte italiana è
l’«arrière-pays», il retroterra di qualsiasi
esperienza e memoria del bello; e Osip
Mandelštam osservò che per leggere Dante
occorre avere uno sguardo volto al futuro.
Questo è l’ambito della civiltà italiana: la
memoria di una perfezione condivisa, l’eserci-
zio di un pensiero capace di abbracciare gli
‘universali’ della condizione umana. Questa
universalità non è somma di digressioni
all’infinito: è, al contrario, come scrisse Jorge
Luis Borges della “Divina Commedia”, capacità
di racchiudere tutta una vita in un verso.
Comprendere il vissuto della storia, gli
universali del pensiero, stringerli in sintesi,
offrirli come una ‘prospettiva’: arte, filosofia,
poesia, spiritualità chiamate a dar forma
all’essenziale.

The Master in Philosophy at USI is a research
master with a special focus on theoretical
philosophy and its history.
It is a research master in that it requires
students to submit regular written work, to
produce research papers and to develop their
discussion skills in class. It focuses on
theoretical philosophy and its history in
particular. The master offers courses in
contemporary analytic philosophy, metaphys-
ics and philosophy of mind, and in the history
of philosophy, ancient and medieval, which are
designed to complement each other. Unlike
other masters in philosophy, the Master in
Philosophy at USI has a strong thematic unity.
The topic of the programme is time and
existence. The detailed exploration of the
philosophy of time and existence aims to
provide a full grasp of two central interrelated
philosophical topics and an introduction to
contemporary research in philosophy and the
history of philosophy.
