Julia Pelosi-Thorpe works with English, Latin, Italian, Dialects, and HTML to adapt and translate texts.
She studied Classics at the Universities of Melbourne and Bologna and is now doing a PhD in Italian Studies and Comparative Literature at the University of Pennsylvania.
Her 2023–2024 fellowship with the Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies Making (and Remaking) Texts Past, Present, and Future uses the experience of cataloguing and digitising a 15th-century book of hours to grapple with how manuscripts’ layers of material manipulation shape how they are understood, described, and associated with other texts.
