Enrico Terrinoni is a Full Professor of English Literature at the University for Foreigners of Perugia and currently serves as a Visiting Professor at the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei's Beniamino Segre Interdisciplinary Center (2022–2025). His academic work bridges literary scholarship, translation, and cultural criticism, with a central focus on James Joyce and modernist literature.

His research interests include:

• English-language literatures
• James Joyce studies
• Literary translation and philology
• Modernist and comparative literature
• The philosophical and metaphysical dimensions of literature
• The reception of classical texts in modern writing

His recent publications reveal a sustained engagement with Joyce's legacy, translation theory, and the boundaries of narrative.

His research trends emphasize interdisciplinarity, combining literary analysis with philosophy, cultural history, and esoteric thought.

• Fiuggi Storia Prize (2023)

Terrinoni has advised no publicly listed students, and no information is available about grants or research funding. However, his role at the Beniamino Segre Center indicates active participation in interdisciplinary research. He teaches courses in English literature, literary translation, and film adaptation at the University for Foreigners of Perugia. His public intellectual work includes contributions to Il Manifesto, Left, Il Venerdì, and Il Tascabile Treccani. While no formal lab or research team is mentioned, his collaborative editorial projects (e.g., with Declan Kiberd and Fabio Pedone) suggest strong scholarly networks.
