Students & Things
Every student must choose a "domestic tool" as object of his/her own inquiry.
For the first week a pictorial catalogue is required, as in the example of the "Achille Castiglioni hammers"
Starting point
The
History of material culture
starts from the human being. This discipline belongs to the
Anthropology
field and deals with the relationship between man and things.
Within the knowledge processes, things and their names are strictly correlated.
