Project title:“Stone Scenes”. Performances of classical texts in ancient theatres, archaeological sites and digital archives.
Research Activity Description: Thanks to the use of digital technology, this project aims to carry out a systematic and constantly updated survey of the performances of Greek and Latin literary texts in stone theatres and in archaeological sites of Southern Italy, which represent a key cultural and economic asset for the territory. Despite that, they have neither been adequately surveyed yet, nor included in the broad international circuits of classical theatre festivals. The research will be aimed at carrying out a historical and critical study of the scenic rewritings in archaeological spaces. Moreover, the research will be aimed at building an online database of modern performances of ancient drama in open-air theatres, and a second online database of the Southern Italian stone theatres and of their potential uses.

Project title: Wild space and urban space: the relationship with nature in the Europe of the origins and of the romantic age.
Research Activity Description: The necessity of establishing a new kind of relationship with nature provides the ground on which the new 'green' urban spaces and a new idea of sustainable development between the technology-market and the natural environment could be build. The heavily urbanized industrial Occident is founded on the development of the idea of the city and of the market which emerges between early and late Middle Ages. The principal aim of the project is to investigate this transition and how the romantic culture reshapes it, by analysing on the one hand early chivalric novels, allegorical novels, troubadour lyric, chronicles, cartulari and statutes of the Italian municipalities between twelth and fourteenth century, and authors such as Goethe, Novalis, von Eichendorff, Alexander von Humboldt on the other. In those more recent authors the idea of a dialectical complementarity between nature and spirit clearly emerges.

Project title: "Green que te quiero green": poetry as a space for assimilation, recycling and regeneration of the word and ecological thought.
Research Activity Description: This research project has the dual ambition of launching a campaign to raise awareness of green issues and at the same time give poetry a central role. The project involves: a census of all those Spanish-language texts that are particularly relevant to the ecological discourse and environmental sustainability; the creation of a database on the themes of ecosystem conservation, biodiversity and ecological awareness, including the original texts and bio-bibliographical data sheets of the authors; the systematic and progressive creation of Italian translations of all the texts (an aspect that requires special philological and linguistic skills), to make the poetic and ecological message more accessible.
