Application of Knowledge and Understanding: Ability to apply knowledge and understanding; ability for analysis, synthesis, and argumentation; critical thinking and interdisciplinary connections, particularly in dialogue with psychology; critical analysis of the main methodologies for teaching developed in philosophy education research and critical reading of the relationship between philosophy and the history of philosophy, developing a philosophical-historical path starting from understanding this connection. Autonomy of Judgment: Ability to organize diachronic data, personal evaluation, and synchronous use of acquired skills, also with reference to their implications in psychology, as well as ethical and existential dimensions. Interdisciplinary Teaching Methodologies: Ability to use interdisciplinary teaching methodologies: establishing connections between philosophy and other forms of knowledge, particularly philosophy and psychology, but also philosophy and sciences, philosophy and art, philosophy and history, philosophy and public discourse. Communication Skills: Ability to communicate knowledge in appropriate philosophical language. Learning Ability: Acquisition of a rational learning method enabling further studies in an autonomous and conscious manner.
Prerequisites	The course is institutional and introductory to the main themes and problems of ancient philosophy; therefore, no prerequisites or specific knowledge are required to understand the course content.
Teaching methods	Lectures, seminars, and exercises on texts.
Other information	Attendance at lectures is not mandatory but highly recommended, and it is a condition for accessing any exemption prior to the final exam; attendance is also highly recommended for any additional educational hours proposed. The detailed program and supplementary information (reference texts and readings that will be proposed during the lectures) can be found on the Unistudium portal (https://www.unistudium.unipg.it/unistudium/)
Learning verification modality	Normally, there is a single final assessment consisting of a written test, and interim assessments may be scheduled for parts of the program if they prove useful during the course or at the end. Typically, the assessment consists of a final written exam (final oral exams or partial assessments may also be scheduled, but only if defined by the Instructor, with prior communication via the SOL portal - online secretariat). The written test lasts a maximum of 40 minutes and consists of a combination of closed and open-ended questions, contributing to the final evaluation on a scale of thirty. The platform for the test will be indicated by the instructor on the Unistudium portal. The written test includes: 24 closed questions (24 points, 1 point for each question), 2 open-ended questions (8 points, 4 points each - any score exceeding 30/30 qualifies for honors), one of which pertains to a chosen text on the theme of "Love and Friendship," and the others on topics covered in class or specified in the program. A total of 40 minutes is allotted for the entire test. The objective of the written test is to verify the acquired knowledge and the ability to contextualize authors and issues within the historical philosophical framework considered.
