Lingue per la pace

 Celebration, 26 set 2024 - 26 set 2024, Viterbo, Itália

The title of the initiative is Languages for Peace, a theme around which the Day's program is organized: after the institutional greetings, featuring Pro-rector Alvaro Marucci and city councilor Francesca Pietrangeli, the Day will begin with a lecture given by Luca Lorenzetti, professor of glottology at the University of Tuscia, entitled Words of Peace, Words of War. Following this, the department's classrooms will become spaces in which students, male and female, both university students and the many from educational institutions in the city and province, will be able to meet and engage with languages and cultures other than their own, touching on each of the eight languages taught at DISTU, to which Italian is added (Arabic, Chinese, French, English, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, German). In the afternoon, participants will enjoy the proposed activities of: Taiji Shan by lecturer Tang Xiangyi (Confucius Hall, Univ. of Tuscia) and a trial Qi Gong class; Henna in the Arab world: a journey through art, rituals and identity by Jessica Pulsone (Univ. Roma Sapienza); The Languages of Peace.
