Research project: Crafting the Poetic Self: The Art of Mimetic Self-Portraiture in Late Medieval Literature

The project explores the dialogic construction of authorial personas in the late Middle Ages, proposing a perspective that sees premodern identities as essentially relational. It aims to redefine literary self-fashioning and its intertextualities, examining how various elements contribute to creating unique, but interwoven literary brands. The research also delves into the posterity of auctorial self-presentation, exploring how distinct poetic identities resonate in later texts and anthologies.
