Research: For a critical and commented edition of "Giannettino's Journey Across Italy" by Collodi

Alessandro Canazza (Isola della Scala, 1996) graduated from high school in 2015, with a grade of 100/100 cum laude. On 6th July 2018 he obtained with distinction a BA in Literature at the State University of Milan, discussing a dissertation entitled "The 'London Memoirs' by Edmondo De Amicis: a linguistic analysis" (supervisor: prof. Massimo Prada). On 30th April 2021 he obtained with distinction a MA in Modern Literature at the State University of Milan, discussing a dissertation entitled "'Giannettino's Journey Across Italy' by Collodi: language and tradition, from the author's manuscripts to the printed editions" (supervisor: prof. Massimo Prada; co-supervisor: prof. Martino Marazzi). Both dissertations were deemed worthy of publication and were summarized in some scientific articles published in the journal «Italiano LinguaDue».
He is currently a PhD student in Italian Studies at Sapienza - University of Rome (37th cycle) and carries out a research project ("For a critical and commented edition of 'Giannettino's Journey Across Italy' by Collodi"; tutor: prof. Marco Grimaldi; co-tutor: Prof. Lorenzo Geri) based on his previous studies, with the aim of establishing the critical text of the vast and complex odeporic work by Collodi and at the same time conducting an in-depth analysis from an interpretative and literary point of view.
His research interests develop in the fields of the history of the Italian language and the philology of the Italian literature, with particular attention to the children's literature of the second half of the nineteenth century, and in general to the Italian literature of the post-unification period, and to the theoretical debate around the so-called "question of the language" in the nineteenth century.
In May 2021 he obtained the Certificate in Advanced English (CAE) with a C2 level certification.
On 17th February 2022 he received a graduation award from the Grazioli Foundation of Brescia, during the inauguration ceremony of the Lombard Institute Academy of Science and Letters' 219th academic year. The award is assigned annually to twelve graduates from the universities of Lombardy in the previous academic year, whose master's thesis is recognized as worthy from the point of view of originality and scientific value.
