The author of the first Italian monograph focusing on Bernardine Evaristo’s literary production, Identità nere e cultura europea (2014), she has published extensively on post-colonial and (Black) British authors. Her most recent research interests lie in the interplay between language and power in contemporary multimodal discursive arenas, particularly in the representation of antinormative identities in news media as well as in British and American films.

Emanuele Monegato, University of Milan

He is co-editor of the textbook Letterature e culture inglesi. Temi e (con)testi dal XIX secolo a oggi (Pearson, 2024) with N. Vallorani and P. Caponi. He is currently teaching English language and literature at a secondary school in Milan and also serves as editor-in-chief of Altre Modernità, UNIMI, where he co-edited the 2017 issue Gli Studi Culturali e l’università italiana.
