On February 1, 2023, we officially welcomed Dr. Dennj Solera, who joined our team as the Postdoctoral Researcher.

Dennj has studied the early modern age by training in historical studies in various centres and universities (Padua, Aix-Marseille, Florence, Geneva, York, Bologna etc.). He devoted his research to the social dimension of the Roman Inquisition, the history of religious sacrifice, universities, and student mobility.

Within the KnowStudents project he will focus on Padua, the main centre of attraction for students from Eastern Europe until the 17th century, analyzing the intellectual history of Poloni students before and after their stay in Paduan university, as well as he will investigate the cultural circle of the humanist and patron Giovan Vincenzo Pinelli.

A brief information about his CV together with contact data, can be found on his profile.

We wish him an excellent time and very fruitful research during his time with our team!
