Der Fachbereich für Italienische Kultur und Gesellschaft organisiert regelmässig Gastvorlesungen mit internationalen Expert:innen aus verschiedenen Disziplinen. Wir sind darum bemühlt, die Universität St. Gallen ins Zentrum der schweizerischen und internationalen Debatten in den Bereichen Environmental Humanities und Italian Studies zu rücken. Master- und Bachelorstudierende, aber auch ein weiteres interessiertes Publikum erhalten die Möglichkeit, sich im Rahmen der Vorlesungen mit einigen der renommiertesten, einflussreichsten und innovativsten Forschenden im Bereich auszutauschen.
