Maria Sole Costanzo is a visiting assistant professor of Italian in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures at Boston College. Her recent articles study the interrelations between exile and language in connection with the fashioning of public identities in Medieval and Early Modern authors, such as Petrarch and Leon Battista Alberti. Her current monograph investigates the dynamics of language and power in Alberti's oeuvre. A further area of her studies considers women in the High Italian Renaissance, and she has been a Contributing researcher for the Isabella D’Este Archive Project since 2015.
