Roberto Binetti earned his PhD in Medieval and Modern Languages from the University of Oxford in 2022 with a dissertation on representations of gender, history, and politics in women鈥檚 poetry. His research focuses on modern and contemporary poetry, with an emphasis on the relationship between the lyric genre and cultural history. He has held a Lectureship in Italian at St Anne鈥檚 College, University of Oxford (2019/2021), a Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Department of Italian Studies, University of Toronto (2023/2024) and a STARS Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Department of Linguistics and Literary Studies, University of Padua (2024/2025).

He is the author of 鈥�Poetics of Becoming: Italian Women鈥檚 Poetry鈥� in the Long Seventies (Peter Lang, 2025) and 鈥�Conglomerates: Andrea Zanzotto鈥檚 Poetic Clusters鈥� (Peter Lang, 2025) and co-editor, with Adele Bardazzi and Jonathan Culler, of 鈥�The Contemporary Elegy in World Literature鈥� (Brill, 2025). He is also the co-founder of 鈥�Italian Poetry Today鈥� and 鈥�Non solo muse鈥�, two research platforms dedicated to the study of modern and contemporary Italian poetry.

His MSCA Global Fellowship project, IPNA, examines the emergence and evolution of nuclear anxieties in Italian poetry from the Cold War to the present (1945鈥�2024) through the lenses of environmental humanities, affective stylistics, and world literature. The project uniquely positions modern Italian lyric poetry within a transnational study of nuclear anxiety, exploring how poetry both reflects and shapes environmental concerns on a global scale. By tracing the transgenerational expression of nuclear anxiety in poetry, IPNA aims to offer new insights into lyric form and the relationship between literature and anxiety. He will conduct this research at the Department of Linguistics and Literary Studies at the University of Padua under the supervision of Prof. Emanuele Zinato and, during the outgoing phase, at the Department of Italian Studies at Yale University under the supervision of Prof. Alessandro Giammei.
