I am a PhD Candidate at the University of Zurich, pursuing a joint PhD (cotutelle) with the Università degli Studi di Milano. My dissertation project focuses on the tradition of commentaries on Latin classics during the Middle Ages, with particular attention to the sources and methodologies of commentary. As a case study, I investigate the reception of the myth of Orpheus in medieval commentaries on Ovid’s Metamorphoses, Boethius’ De consolatione philosophiae, and works by Virgil. My doctoral research is part of the SNF project The Ancient World Seen from Medieval Glosses, in which I actively collaborate.
I completed both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Classics at the Università degli Studi di Milano, with a particular focus on medieval Latin literature and philology.
