I’m an Italian lecturer, researcher and writer currently teaching Italian at Rudn University, Moscow.
After my Ph.D in Philosophy (dissertation on Pavel Florensky), I moved to Russia where I have been teaching for about 14 years (mostly Italian language and culture and modules on art).
I have published more than forty books, including Italian language manuals, essays on art, philosophical essays, short stories collections and ekphrastic poetry collections, some of which have been awarded literary prizes.
As an academic, my fields of research mainly relate to:
1. The historical Avant-gardes (Futurism, Metafisica, Dadaism, Surrealism).
3. Philosophical implications of Quantum Physics.
4. Franco Battiato - Manlio Sgalambro.
At my Academia.edu page you can download several of my essays about those topics while for the entire collection of my books, please refer to my Amazon page.
L'idea che la verità fosse dalla parte contro cui si schieravano solidalmente tutti, in un certo senso per me rispondeva a una determinata legge sovrasensibile.
