Emanuela Caffe

I am a first year PhD student and language tutor in University College Dublin (UCD)’s School of Languages, Cultures and Linguistics. I obtained a Bachelor’s Degree in Modern and Contemporary Languages and Cultures in Rome at the Università di Roma Tre, spending one year on Erasmus in Dublin at UCD, and I completed my Master’s in Italian Studies at University College London (UCL). My research interests include Literary Theory -mainly feminist-, Comparative Literature, Women’s Writing especially Italian Women’s Writing of the 20th and 21st century, and gender studies. I am currently writing a thesis on Elena Ferrante and Feminism under the guidance of my supervisor, Professor Ursula Fanning (UCD).
