Gaia Zaccaro is a first-year PhD student in the Department of Literary, Linguistic and Comparative Studies at the University of Naples “L’Orientale.” Her research project, funded by the NRRP (National Recovery and Resilience Plan; Next Generation EU), centers on mapping out the recent developments in the field of ecocriticism and its manifestations in contemporary English-language literature, focusing particularly on how the interaction of different theoretical frameworks (postcolonial ecocriticism, ecofeminism, queer ecologies, ecofascism, etc.) has led to a critical reassessment of the concept of the Anthropocene.
