Paolo De Ventura

Accepting PhD Students

PhD projects

Paolo De Ventura's main area of research has revolved around Dante’s Comedy and its Medieval, French, Occitan and Latin context, using a linguistic and philological approach as a privileged standpoint for literary criticism. He is particularly interested in the peculiarity of Medieval language, with its dramatic and performative elements embedded within the written page.

At present, Dr De Ventura is supervising the research of three PhD students in the areas of linguistics and Medieval Studies.
