01 ABOUT ME I am a researcher in ancient philosophy. My main focus is the Early Roman Empire (I-III cent. AD), a world animated by lively and open debates between different philosophical schools, cultural groups, religious associations. The core themes and issues I investigate are centered around divinatory theories and doctrines of salvation.
02 OUTPUT My first monograph A Perfect Medium fathoms Plutarch’s theories of divination in their philosophical context, within the broader framework of Plutarch’s reading of Plato’s Timaeus. I have since then written articles, chapters, and co-edited a volume, on several topics on the philosophy and religion of the first centuries AD.
03 PROJECTS AND COLLABORATIONS I have conducted my research at various international institutions, including the École Pratique des Hautes Études (Laboratoire d'études sur les monothéismes LEM - UMR 8584) and The American School of Classical Studies in Athens, where I was received the generous support of the British Academy and the FWO, respectively. Additionally, I was a visiting researcher at the Institute of Philosophy at KU Leuven and at the Department of Classics at the Ohio State University (OH).
