PROFESSIONAL AFFILIATIONS

2018- Society of Biblical Literature (SBL) (full member) www.sbl-site.org

2016- Associazione italiana degli slavisti (socio ordinario) http://associazioneslavisti.com/

Nel periodo di riferimento (01/01/2018 - 31/12/2020) ho complessivamente pubblicato 2 articoli su riviste di Classe A indicizzate in Scopus/Web of Science, 2 articoli in riviste Scientifiche Anvur, 14 capitoli di libro e 5 saggi in atti di convegno. Tutte le sedi editoriali sono di rilevanza internazionale. In particolare, segnalo la pubblicazione di due edizioni critiche e di studi sulla tradizione manoscritta e storia della tradizione della versione paleoslava (bulgara antica) delle Orazioni di Gregorio di Nazianzo e la scoperta di frammenti di una versione paleoslava degli Ambigua ad Iohannem di Massimo il Confessore. Con riferimento agli studi biblici ho pubblicato le mie scoperte relative all’individuazione di uno strato testuale proto-lucianico nella tradizione serba antica dei Libri dei Re e di una particolare redazione del Libro di Daniele precedentemente sconosciuta. Entrambe le scoperte hanno una rilevanza non solo per gli studi slavistici, ma anche per la Filologia biblica. Ho condotto inoltre ricerche sui libri deuterocanonici, sia in tradizione slava sia in tradizione georgiana antica. Mi sono poi occupato della più antica edizione a stampa della Bibbia slava ecclesiastica, individuando le fonti greche utilizzate. Per quanto riguarda la storia della lingua russa, ho svolto ricerche sulle iscrizioni su corteccia di betulla di Novgorod e sul sistema verbale della versione slava orientale del Digenis Akritas. Di carattere paleografico sono le ricerche dedicate agli autografi di Demetrio Cidone e alla descrizione di codici slavi meridionali delle Orazioni di Gregorio di Nazianzo.

Nel 2019 ho vinto un premio di ricerca della Fondazione Alexander von Humboldt con il quale ho finanziato il convegno internazionale "Probleme mittelalterlicher Überlieferung und Textkritik: europäische Philologien im Vergleich” tenutosi a Ca’ Foscari nel gennaio 2020. Dal 2019 sono membro del gruppo di ricerca “New tools for European philologies: spectroscopic
techniques applied to the study of manuscripts”, al quale partecipano membri del DSLCC, del DSMN e dell’Istituto di Struttura della Materia del Consiglio Superiore delle Ricerche Spagnolo (CSIC).

Nel 2020 ho conseguito l’Abilitazione Scientifica Nazionale a Professore Ordinario in Slavistica con giudizio favorevole unanime dei commissari.

Gli obiettivi futuri consistono nello sviluppo di ricerche su manoscritti slavi antichi, riguardanti aspetti paleografici, codicologici e critico-testuali. Intendo proseguire le mie ricerche sulle versioni paleoslave dei libri dell’Antico Testamento, delle Orazioni di Gregorio di Nazianzo e dei Commentari a quest’ultime.
