Teresa Prudente received her PhD in Comparative Literature from the University of Turin (Italy), where she currently teaches and holds a Post-doctoral fellowship. She has published articles in international peer-reviewed journals and she has taken part to several international symposia. She is a contributor for The Modernist Journals Project, for The Literary Encyclopedia and for the Italian monthly review L'indice dei libri del mese.

She is the author of A Specially Tender Piece of Eternity: Virginia Woolf and the Experience of Time (Lanham, MD: Lexington Books, 2009) and the co-editor, with Dr. Federico Sabatini, of Cinematic Strategies in the 20th Century Narratives and Beyond (Amherst, New York; Cambria Press,2010).
 

Her research interests and publications focus especially on the theory of the novel, on the relation between Modernism, visual arts and cinema, and on linguistic experimentation. At the moment, she is exploring the connections between Virginia Woolf’s and James Joyce’s writings in the light of the issue of impersonality in narration, and focusing on the linguistic and narrative experiments of Twentieth century Italian, English and American authors.
