Marco Lepore

Ph.D., Italian Studies

I received my laurea in Italian literature in 2005 from the University Ca' Foscari of Venice, with a dissertation on the religious turn in the writings of Elémire Zolla and Cristina Campo. I hold a Master’s degree in language teaching (University Ca' Foscari, 2011) and an M.A. in Italian Literature (University of Pennsylvania, 2012). I am now working towards the completion of my Ph.D. in Italian with a focus on 20thcentury literature.
