He teaches multiple courses including Fundamentals of Romance Philology and Linguistics, Medieval Catalan Literature, and specialized seminars on Romance philology. His academic responsibilities include thesis supervision, examination coordination, and mandatory thesis workshops for undergraduate and graduate students. Research interests focus on Romance philology with specializations in: Medieval literature and poetry (particularly Provençal, Catalan, and Occitan traditions) Critical text editions and manuscript analysis Historical linguistics and Bible translations Troubadour literature and poetic identity studies Iberian Romance philology with emphasis on Catalan medieval works Publications consistently explore medieval text reconstruction, linguistic analysis of Romance languages, and critical editions of overlooked manuscripts. Recent works demonstrate deepening focus on sacred poetry fragments, biblical translations, and interdisciplinary approaches combining literary and linguistic analysis. Thesis advising requires students to demonstrate translation competency in relevant languages and attend dedicated workshops. Examination procedures include preliminary written tests in Romance philology fundamentals using digital platforms like Exam.Net, with accommodations for students with disabilities.

Sapienza University of RomeItaly

Debora Vaccari serves as Associate Professor in the Department of Modern Literature and Culture at Sapienza University of Rome, where she teaches Spanish Language and Literature across undergraduate programs and the Master's in Specialized Translation. Her institutional affiliation spans the Department of Modern Literature and Culture within Sapienza's humanities structure, with research anchored in Golden Age Spanish studies. Her research expertise centers on Golden Age Spanish theater and literature, particularly collaborative theatrical practices of the 17th century, manuscript studies of early professional theater companies, and Spanish songbooks preserved in Rome. She investigates female speech patterns in cancioneros, microrrelato as contemporary narrative form, and Italy-Spain literary relations, with special focus on textual transmission and authorship problems in works by Lope de Vega, Juan Bautista Diamante, and Agustín Moreto. Her methodological approach combines philological analysis with performance studies to reconstruct historical theatrical contexts. Vaccari's publication trends reveal sustained engagement with collaborative writing practices across 15 recent articles, where she examines manuscript evidence from Roman archives (Barberini, Corsini collections) to analyze theatrical workshops, genre evolution, and cross-cultural exchanges. Her work bridges Golden Age studies with contemporary narrative theory, particularly in microrrelato analysis, while maintaining philological rigor in textual editions. Key thematic clusters include authorship attribution problems, gender representation in dialogues, and linguistic evolution in multilingual contexts. As module instructor for Spanish Language exams, she administers structured assessment protocols including separate Linguistics and Reading tests with specific booking systems for written and oral exams. Her teaching responsibilities cover advanced Spanish translation, Spanish Linguistics, and Literature courses across multiple degree programs including Linguistics and LIS Interpretation. She participates in national PRIN projects including 'Canzonieri spagnoli fra Rinascimento e Barocco' and international collaborations like 'Las comedias y sus representantes' with Valencia University. Her research extends to editorial work for the 'Terra Iberica' series and conference organization, notably as Local Committee member for the 2010 AIH Congress where she edited the theater proceedings volume. Vaccari's scholarly activities integrate manuscript research from Roman archives with contemporary theoretical frameworks, maintaining active involvement in AIH, AISO, and AISPI academic societies while directing her investigation toward collaborative creation models in Golden Age theater and transnational literary exchanges.
