In 2021, Ginevra Martinelli earned a Bachelor’s degree in Classics from the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore of Milan, with a thesis in Greek literature focusing on adversative particles in 3rd-century oratory BCE. In 2022, she completed an internship at CIRCSE (Centro di Ricerca Interdisciplinare per l'Informatizzazione dei Segni Espressivi - Interdisciplinary Research Centre for the Computerization of Expressive Signs), collaborating on the ERC project “LiLa-Linking Latin”, aimed at creating a Knowledge Base of interoperable resources for Latin, using the Linked Open Data paradigm. In December 2023, she obtained her Master’s degree in Classics, with a thesis in computational linguistics entitled “Topic Modeling and Classical Latin: A Large-Scale Corpus Investigation”, supervised by Prof. Marco Carlo Passarotti and in collaboration with the department of Computer Science of the Università degli Studi Milano-Bicocca. The objective of this study was to evaluate the application of neural models for the automatic analysis of the topic distribution of a large corpus of Latin literature.
