Among the twentieth-century literary authors on whom she has written several articles, she prefers those involved in expressive and linguistic experimentation: Vittorio Imbriani, Carlo Emilio Gadda (with Mondadori Education, in 2013 she published an annotated anthology of Gadda’s texts), Stefano D'Arrigo, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Amelia Rosselli, Elio Pagliarani, Alfredo Giuliani, Paolo Volponi, Albino Pierro, Jolanda Insana, and others. Together with A. Cedola, she curated the publication of the first draft of Horcynus Orca (I fatti della fera, Rizzoli, 2000) by D’Arrigo, to whom she also dedicated a monograph, Il folle volo. Lettura di Horcynus Orca, published in the "Giacomo Debenedetti" series of the Department of Italian Studies and Performing Arts at "La Sapienza" (Rome, 2005, translated in France by Editions de Grenelle, Paris, 2025). In 2024, she edited the unpublished Compratore di anime by Stefano D’Arrigo for Rizzoli. In 2025, she curated the collection of previously unpublished documents and wrote the afterword for the new edition of Horcynus Orca published in the BUR series. Among her research interests are the historical-geographic and spatial approach to the study of literary texts, as well as theoretical and methodological gender perspectives in research and teaching.
