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.
