Hello, people of #Mastodon!

Time for a quick #introduction: I am a literary historian, so I'm looking forward to meet fellow #litodons, #histodons, and everything in between.

I will mostly toot on:

- Late #medieval, #Renaissance and #earlymodern manuscripts from Italy and other areas of Europe and the Mediterranean. Exchanges between languages, cultures, and regions are my jam!

- Everything related to premodern texts and questions of identity-making and community building. That includes gender, race, class, and how they intersect in the history of Italian literature and culture.

- Books, manuscripts, and art, especially from premodern Italy. If something made a premodern reader happy (like the manuscript below), it makes me happy, too.
