Fitxa persona

I am a Ramón y Cajal Fellow (tenure-tracked investigator and professor) at the Departamento de Historia Moderna y Contemporánea of the Universitat de València. Previously, I have been a postdoctoral fellow of the Casa de Velázquez (2020-2021), the Madrid Institute for Advanced Study (2021-2022) y the FRS-FNRS (Belgium 2022-2024). I have carried out research or teaching fellowships at the New York University (2012), the École française de Rome (2014-2015), the University of Tampere (2023), the Universidad de Granada (2024), the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (2024) and the Instituto Ravignani de la Universidad de Buenos Aires (2024).

I am an expert of the history of politics and death in the 19th century. My current research deals with martyrdom as a category of politics, with a major focus on Southern Europe (Spain and Italy) and an ampliation towards the transatlantic area.

From January 2023, I am the Principal Investigator of the research programme AMAPOL. Aspects du MArtyre POLitique (Europe méridionale 1800-1939), which is part of Casa de Velázquez's scientific programmation until December 2025.

Last published book: Les nouveaux martyrs XVIIIe-XXe siècle (París: Passés/Composés, 2024).
