I am ordinary Professor of General Relativity. Apart from advanced courses on String related issues given from time to time at the graduate level my institutional course is

RELATIVITY

Before the transition to the new 3+2 system my course in General Relativity was offered every spring semester with a two hour schedule every week day from March to May, for a total of about 120 hours of lecturing.

After the transition to the new 3+2 system my course has been split into two modules:

1. General Relativity: I : Foundaments and Differential Geometry (45 hours)
2. General Relativity II : Applications to Cosmology, Stellar Physics, Black Holes and Gravitational Waves. (45 hours)

After the my departure for Moscow the Course which I gave for 15 years in Torino University, that had a long tradition starting from the creation of the Relativity Chair for Tullio Regge, which I inherited in 1995, was unfortunately dismantled.

BOOK

The full course in General Relativity was transformed into a Two Volume Book published by Springer Verlag in December 2012. The Book contains also an introduction to Supergravity and many Historical Remarks together with an outline of the conceptual development.
