Tracy Cosgriff is a Ph.D. candidate in the History of Italian Renaissance Art and Architecture at the University of Virginia. As a trained philologist in Latin and Greek, Tracy is deeply interested in questions related to the intertwined histories of art and literature. Under the direction of David Summers, she is currently writing a dissertation on theories of rhetoric, Raphael, and the famous frescoes in the Stanza della Segnatura. A recipient of the Greenslade Foreign Study Fellowship at the University of Virginia, Tracy looks forward to returning to Italy, after participating last June in ISI’s Translating the Past workshop, to conduct careful study in the libraries, drawing rooms, and museums of Florence and Rome. In the meantime, she is enjoying the fall semester as a teaching assistant for History of Art I, working to perfect her cooking, and watching the leaves change in beautiful Charlottesville.
