Chiara Piazzesi

I am Full Professor of Sociology at the Université du Québec à Montréal. Born in Florence, Italy, I received my education at the prestigious Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa and at the Università del Salento, where I earned my PhD. My research interests span love relationships, feminist issues, gender relations, digital practices, and the place of beauty in women’s lives. Among my publications are the books: "The Beauty Paradox. Femininity in the Age of Selfies" (Rowman & Littlefield 2023); «Grammatiche dell’amore [Love Grammars]» (Franco Angeli, 2019) and «Vers une sociologie de l’intime. Éros et socialisation [Towards a Sociology of the Intimate]» (Hermann, 2017).
