Paolo Monella is a tenure-track researcher in Latin language and Digital Humanities at Università Kore di Enna with over a decade of experience blending classical philology and computational methods. He holds a PhD in Classics and an ASN for associate professorship, and has taught and researched at institutions including UCLA, Sapienza, Ca' Foscari and the Accademia dei Lincei. Paolo combines hands-on technical skills (Python, TEI XML, JS/CSS) with traditional scholarly editing, producing critical editions and digital projects such as editions of Orso Beneventano and Romualdo Salernitano while working on Priscian’s Ars grammatica. Active in the Italian DH community, he serves on the AIUCD board and coordinates digital innovation for the Unione Accademica Nazionale, bridging national research infrastructure and classroom practice. His work is notable for applying object-oriented modelling to manuscript ontology and for bringing digital pedagogy into classical curricula. Based in Enna, Sicily, he maintains an academic website with a full CV and projects that showcase the intersection of Latin scholarship and open technical tooling.
