Identity and Conflict in Tuscany

  • A cura di:
  • Silvia Ross,
  • Claire Honess,

This volume represents a targeted exploration of the theme of identity and conflict in the context of Tuscan Studies, an exploration which is enriched by the diverse disciplinary perspectives encompassed (history, literature, linguistics). The essays, which span the period from the nineteenth century to the present, examine conflict in terms of war but also as a form of struggle between different demographic groups or conflict based on gender and identity politics. This collection thus signals an original mode of analysis of the region, while drawing on the proven interest, both scholarly and popular, in its history, literature, language, art and society.

She has published in a number of scholarly journals such as Studies in Travel Writing, Italian Studies, Annali d’italianistica, Italian Culture and The Italianist and has co-edited the volumes Gendered Contexts: New Perspectives in Italian Cultural Studies (1996) and Mediterranean Travels: Writing Self and Other from the Ancient World to Contemporary Society (Legenda, 2011).

She holds a BA in Italian and French and a PhD on Dante, both from the University of Reading (UK). Her book, From Florence to the Heavenly City: The Poetry of Citizenship in Dante, appeared in 2006; she has a continuing interest in medieval political poetry and, in particular, in the way in which Dante uses political ideas and imagery, both in his poetry and in his letters, four of which she has translated into English (MHRA, 2007). She is a co-investigator on the AHRC-funded project ‘Dante and Late-Medieval Florence: Theology in Poetry, Practice and Society’, a co-editor of the journal, The Italianist, and Chair of the Society for Italian Studies in the UK and Ireland.
