Ugo is the Principal Investigator of the TORCH Network Poetry in the Medieval World.
Ugo's research focuses on how Greek language has been taught and used in different contexts throughout space and time; and on when, why, and how literature was composed in the premodern world. In this sense, he is working on the forms and the uses of poetry in the Greek-speaking medieval world.
He is currently a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow at the Faculty of Medieval and Modern Languages. His project will result in a multidisciplinary reconsideration of eleventh-century schedography, a teaching method of Greek grammar that significantly impacted text production for over five centuries.
