Martina Benigni

Martina Benigni (Rome, 1996) in February 2023 obtained a Second Level Professional Master’s Degree in Specialized Translation at Sapienza University of Rome, where she is currently a PhD student. She has always engaged in poetry and poetry translation studies. Her research interests focus on contemporary Chinese poetry landscape, with a special attention to women’s poetry. In 2021, the Roman publishing house Ensemble published her first poetry collection, "Coraggiosamente fare le cose per niente". Her poetry explores the human condition through elements of everyday life, in search of what Georges Perec called the “infraordinary”, that is the extraordinary in the ordinary.
