Francesco Campana

B.A. in Philosophy at the University of Padua (2009); M.A. in the double degree project "German Idealism and European modern philosophy" at the University of Padua and at the Friedrich Schiller Universität of Jena (2012); Doctorate in Philosophy at the University of Padua (2016). During my Doctorate I was visiting scholar at the Hegel-Archiv/Forschungszentrum für klassische deutsche Philosophy of the Ruhr Universität Bochum (3 months) and at Columbia University in New York (9 months). My research interests are focused on Aesthetics and Philosophy of Art. More specifically, I am interested historically in the Modern and Contemporary Philosophy of Art (in particular, Hegel, Romanticism, Solger; Benjamin, Danto) and systematically in Philosophy of Literature and Philosophy of Music. I wrote my B.A. thesis on W. Benjamin's interpretation of Romantic irony and the M.A. thesis on K.W.F. Solger's poetics of the literary genres. In march 2016 I defended my PhD Dissertation on Hegel's Philosophy of Literature. Form November 2016 I am 'Cultore della Materia' (Research Assistant, without fellowship) in Theoretical Philosophy (chair: Prof. Luca Illetterati) at the University of Padua. My current interests concern the systems of art between 19th and 20th Centrury and the relations between literature and music.
