I am Associate Professor at the University of Padua, Italy. My main areas of research involve epistemology and philosophy of nature. In the first stage of my career I have worked on Leibniz (focusing on the concepts of “life” and “organism”) and on the relations between Leibniz and Hegel. Over the last ten years, I've dealt with early American naturalism and phenomenology. In particular, I have been working on the philosophy of Wilfrid Sellars and on Marvin Farber's project of naturalizing phenomenology. I am currently planning to write a book on the topic of naturalism and civilization.
