Current Research

My translation of Pompeo Colonna's "In Defense of Women," based on Franco Minonzio's Latin edition, and Minonzio's critical introduction (in Italian), was published with the Other Voice series (Iter Press, Toronto) in April 2024. An anthology of querelle des femmes texts will be published this summer, 2026: Querelle: The Debate about Women: An Anthology of Texts. I am working on various new projects, the Other Voice series, and Oxford Bibliographies.
