I am a classical philologist, who benefited from a multidisciplinary training, including both Ancient History and Bronze Age Archaeology. I love the Classical World as a whole, but, if I have to be more specific, I am a specialist in Greek Tragedy, which I investigate from a sociological perspective. My current project explores the way sons on stage discuss and present their fatherly inheritance, an issue vital to our society too. I have also worked on Latin poetry, particularly Ovid (both the Metamorphoses and the Tristia), as well as Seneca (the Troades). I have also crafted various outreach events and initiatives, bringing classics to various audiences, from middle-high schools to community centers and Learning centers, as well as in collaboration with musical organizations (such as the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, the Cincinnati Opera and the Kansas City Lyric Opera).
