The book Colori d’Italia is a language and culture text about Italy for foreign students at an advanced level (C1-C2 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) and offers an innovative linguistic approach based on authentic material.

The volume includes eight sections, each corresponding to an independent unit dedicated to a feeling (fear, admiration, shame, love, hatred, pleasure, anger, joy) presented in multiple cultural and sociolinguistic contexts.

The modular structure makes the book a flexible tool, which can be used both as a main textbook and as a supplementary text. The sequence of sections can be modified by the instructor according to the needs or interests of the class.
