Gianmaria Avellino

I hold a Bachelor's Degree and a Master's Degree in (Theoretical) Philosophy, both received from the University of Naples "Federico II".

Currently, I am following a Twinning Advanced Programme [Corso di perfezionamento in gemellaggio] in "Critical theory of society" and "Critical studies: between marxism and the national-popular movement" organised by the University of Milan-Bicocca and the University of Buenos Aires.

Moreover, I am a two-times training scholarship student at "Istituto Italiano per gli Studi Filosofici" (Italian Institute for Philosophical Studies) (call codes 06/2024BF, 08/2024BF) in Naples.

For my BA, I have defended a thesis in Theoretical Philosophy entitled " 'Overstate the Dark You See in Me'. Martin Heidegger and the Joinings in the Contributions to Philosophy (of the Event)", with an appendix on Rainer Maria Rilke's conception of poetry and existence ("The Song as Dasein. Appendix on R. M. Rilke").

For my MA, I wrote a research thesis in Theoretical Philosophy entitled "Outlines of a Critical Theoresis of Social Being. 'Being and Time''s 'Social Ontology' and Young Marcuse's 'Heideggerian Marxism' ".

My interests lie in the field of social ontology approached from hermeneutics, phenomenology and critical cultural theory.

I am a member of the Italian Philosophical Society (S.F.I., branch of Salerno), the Italian Society of Critical Theory (S.I.T.C.) and the International Social Ontology Society (I.S.O.S.).
