Luisa Andriollo<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Bio<\/summary>\n

Luisa Andriollo is a research fellow in Byzantine studies at the University of Pisa. She has held fellowships at the Universities of Princeton and Bamberg, and from the Gerda Henkel Foundation. Her research focuses on the administrative and social history of Byzantium, particularly on aristocratic society and culture of the 8th<\/sup>-12th<\/sup> centuries; more recently, she has extended her investigations to interreligious debates and cross-cultural exchanges. Her publications include the monograph Constantinople et les provinces d\u2019Asie Mineure, IXe-XIe si\u00e8cles<\/em> (2017) and Byzantium and Its Neighbours: religious Self and Otherness in Dialogue<\/em> (2024), co-edited with Luigi D\u2019Amelia. As part of the M.A.R.E. project, she studies the production of Byzantine anti-Islamic polemical works in the 12th-13th centuries and their circulation between the Levant and Europe. She is also looking at other textual genres (letters, diplomatic documents) as evidence of the existence of extensive social and cultural networks between the Byzantine East and Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
