Academics

I teach Italian at the Peabody Institute in Baltimore and have a little bio
there with a link to my class site.
If you come for a visit I'd be happy to show you the Peabody Library, a unique place.





        


I also teach French and Italian at
Loyola University
in Baltimore.






I got my Masters and Ph.D. in
Comparative Literature from Penn State, and managed to see only one football game in my time there (actually two half games).  I sat in a booth next to Joe Paterno's once at a local pizza parlor.


I did my undergraduate in Classical Philology at the Catholic University of Louvain in Belgium, a.k.a. fons sapientiae, the fountain of wisdom, and I spent the month of August  (2009) there, which was great!   Fonske is their mascotte.

Before that I went to Saint Ignatius College in Antwerp, now part of the University of Antwerp.

And before that I went to Franciscus Xaverius College. Do I know Jesuits?
