Autorenporträt

Federica Ferrari is Tenured Researcher in English Linguistics at the University of Bologna, School of Political Sciences and Department of Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures. Her research predominantly focuses on persuasive phenomena within strategic communication and discourse analysis methodologies with a focus on conceptual metaphor as main tool of analysis and transformative device. Particular attention is given to cognitive, pragmatic and interactive features (relation between language and thought, discourse and action, and inter/intra disciplinary relations). She has developed a specific competence in conceptual metaphor as a text analysis method, a persuasive tool in political discourse and a transformative device in psycho-practice.
