Background
I obtained my Bachelor and Master’s Degrees in Classics at the University of Pisa. As an Erasmus Student, I also studied at the University of Tübingen (Germany) and, during my PhD, spent two months in Edinburgh as a visiting student. I obtained my Joint Doctoral Degree in Classics at the University of Macerata (Italy) and at the Université Paris-Sorbonne in 2020, writing a thesis on the manuscript tradition of Ammianus Marcellinus and the Renaissance reception of his work. I have given papers in Italy, the United Kingdom, and Ireland. From September 2024 I hold a Post-Doctoral position on the Last Historians of Rome project at the University of Edinburgh.

Research summary
My research focuses mainly on the manuscript tradition and the reception of Ammianus Marcellinus, codicology and palaeography. I am also interested in the circulation of the classical and philological studies in the Renaissance and early modern Europe, Latin literature (esp. historiography), Neo-Latin Literature (15th-17th century), and intertextuality.
