Italy is one of the European countries with the highest rate of graduates in Literature. So far there should not be anything strange, especially if you think that our country has a very historical, cultural and aesthetic background. The problem is in the post graduation, insurmountable obstacle for a big part of humanistic students. How to find a job after a degree in modern literature, then? In this article we try to give an answer, providing a viable and satisfying way to fill the gap of unemployment.<\/p>\n

Degree in Classical and Modern Literature<\/h2>\n

For some time around the faculty of Literature and Philosophy hovers a sort of dark shadow<\/strong>: the media are talking about it worse and worse, defining the humanistic study a waste of time, while professionals and economists reiterate the importance of more professional<\/strong> studies<\/strong>, in their opinion, as engineering , economy and others. On the one hand they are right, because nowadays the faculties of Letters churn out a huge amount of graduate students who, however, are struggling to find a job in the short term. On the other hand, however, all this anguish towards this major appears to be unjustified<\/strong>, as well as excessive.<\/p>\n

The Italian peninsula is known throughout the world for many things, including a history based on successes, discoveries, culture, aesthetics and intellect. Now the Italian population is, in Europe, one of those that reads less. How is it possible, then, that such a large quantity of graduates come from this world? The choice of the faculty is part of a very delicate moment of the adolescent’s life: the ideas are not yet completely clear and we tend to choose according to our passions<\/strong> and what we like at that moment. To say that literature is one of the most formative subjects at the level of personality is an obviousness, but when it comes to transforming it into “profession” something starts to creak.<\/p>\n

The Faculty of Letters is divided into two branches: the one of Classic Letters<\/strong> and the one of Modern Letters<\/strong>. The first is more focused on increasing the personality<\/strong> and character<\/strong> of the young student, proposing a purely humanist path with courses in Latin, Greek, Italian, ancient history, ancient literature, philosophy and so on. The course of Modern Literature, on the other hand, is more focused on the acquisition of specific linguistic skills in Italian<\/strong> and on the study of literatures<\/strong>. Both addresses, based on the choices made by the various universities, can hide subjects that are slightly out of the box such as Archeology, Cinema History, Didactics, Foreign Literature and so on.<\/p>\n

What can you do after having undertaken a three-year degree of this discipline? The streets, in this case, are different and include the specialized course<\/strong> (master\u2019s degree) and the\u00a0master<\/strong>. Let’s see where these paths lead and which ones are the best to secure a job.<\/p>\n

After the three-year degree in Literature<\/h2>\n

The difficulty of entering the world of work after the three-year degree<\/a><\/span> in Literature and Philosophy is given by the growing demand<\/strong> and the limited number of available places<\/strong>. To have a chance to catch the coveted desk is essential to increase the skills<\/strong> on the subject or change course and use the skills acquired in other areas.<\/p>\n

The master’s degree<\/h3>\n

The first path, the most classic, concerns a specialized training in the literary field. Within this path you can choose the address best suited to the student’s vocation as:<\/p>\n
