Currently enrolled in a PhD program in the History of Philosophy at the NOVA University Lisbon, I hold a Laurea Magistrale (MA) in Filosofia e Forme del Sapere from the University of Pisa, completed in November 2024, and a Laurea Triennale (BA) in Philosophy from the same institution (2021). My Master’s dissertation, entitled “An Operating Metamorphosis: Signification and Latency in Merleau-Ponty and Nietzsche”, examined French phenomenology and Nietzschean thought in their interrelation, focusing on a critique of language and on the concept of an operative sphere functioning anonymously beneath processes of meaning-making. My current research lies within theoretical philosophy, with particular attention to the history of modern and contemporary philosophy, phenomenology, conceptual history, and natural philosophy. I am currently working on the notions of sign, drive, and expression in Nietzsche’s philosophy through a phenomenological and metaphorological analysis, with an eye toward the nature–culture debate as well as ecological and biosemantic perspectives.
