Diego Luinetti

Diego Luinetti earned a Bachelor degree in Classics (2018) and a Master degree in Philology, History, and Literatures of Antiquity (2021) at the University of Milan, where he completed a thesis entitled Aspect and Aktionsart in Ancient Greek. He earned a Ph.D. in Humanities (37th cycle, 2024) at “Guglielmo Marconi” University, with a dissertation titled Impersonal Constructions in Ancient Greek: A Diachronic Study Between Semantics and Morphosyntax. He spent a research period at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, Poland, where he deepened his understanding of historical and theoretical linguistics, focusing on subject properties, morphosyntactic alignment, and transitivity. He is an external collaborator on the POLONEZ BIS ASTRAPIE project (Alignment, subjecthood and transitivity prominence in Indo-European). Currently, he is a research fellow on the PRIN project The lexicalization of the adjective class in Indo-European and Semitic, focusing on adjectival lexicalization with special attention to Ancient Greek and linguistic typology. He is a member of SLE, ALT, and the Sodalizio Glottologico Milanese. His main research interests lie in the diachrony of verbal morphosyntax in Greek, as well as in Slavic and Kartvelian languages. More broadly, he is interested in historical and typological linguistics.
