Tatiana Crivelli is professor of Italian literature at the University of Zurich and was visiting professor in the USA and in Italy. Her work combines literature, gender and cultural studies, and digital approaches, with a special focus on women’s writing. She was appointed Cavaliere (2004) and Ufficiale (2017) of the Italian Republic, and she is among the twenty-six foreign members of the Accademia dell’Arcadia.

She collaborates with international research networks and journals, coordinates SNF-projects, and directs two OA journals (altrelettere and RISL). Her current digital project aims to renew attention to the work of the writer Alice Ceresa.

Her publications include text editions (such as Leopardi’s Dissertazioni, 1995, and Dialogo filosofico, 1996; Bongiovanni’s Risposte a nome di M. Laura, 2014; Ceresa’s Piccolo dizionario dell’inuguaglianza femminile, 2007/2020, transl. into French and German; Bambine, 2025), collective volumes (L’una e l’altra chiave, 2005; Selvagge e angeliche, 2007; A Companion to Vittoria Colonna, 2016; S/Confinare, 2022; Ceresa tradotta e traduttrice, 2025), monographs (Né Arturo, né Turpino, né la Tavola Rotonda, 2002; La donzelletta che nulla temea, 2014), and numerous articles.
