Why was Venice founded on water? What is specifically characteristic of Venice? Why and when did the City become powerful? Why and when has its power declined? How was the impact between the City and modernity? What is life about in Venice in the present and the past? Is Venice doomed to die?The aim of the course is to try and respond to this and other questions adopting an historical approach. Half of the course will be dedicated to the History of the City at the time of the Republic. The other half will be dedicated to the City in the XIXth-XXIst Centuries.
