And excitingly this partly grows out of a fabulous new @SMLCLeeds cross-School teaching module on Material Cultures and Cultures of Consumption led by alessio baldini - a great example of teaching-led research!

Only one month to the start of the conference on translated literature in Italy and Italian literature abroad that I’m organising with @AndreaRomanzi. I’m very happy and proud of the programme. Click on the link below to register!

Alessio Baldini (Arts, Humanities and Cultures, University of Leeds) chairs today’s first panel on “Power relations and cultural flows between literary systems”, with contributions by Marco Bucaioni (ULisboa), Marta Huber & Vanda Mikšić (University of Zadar), Martina Ožbot (Filozofska fakulteta UL). alessio baldini #tptlf21

Excited to send off my and alessio baldini's presentation for Besides the Screen 2021. In it, we discuss the "receptive vulnerability" of the activist documentary Iuventa - Il film's filming, exhibition and promotion. Can't wait to share, and learn from the other, brilliant participants.

Talks for Besides the Screen are now live! Delighted to appear alongside @sivakkate, James Rendell and my partner in (maritime-rescue-is-not-a) crime, alessio baldini on the Infrastructures of Circulation panel this Thursday. Check out the schedule and videos: besidesthescreen.com/2021-ningbo/20…

Here it is, my and alessio baldini's paper on the filming, distribution and exhibition of migration "artivist" documentary Iuventa (Iuventa - Il film). It's been a pleasure to research Iuventa - I hope you enjoy watching the presentation as much as we did making it!
