Fabio Serranito is Lecturer in Ancient Greek Literature and Culture at the University of Leeds. He specialises in Ancient Greek philosophy and thought (widely construed), with particular emphasis in topics such as love, madness and sanity, care and neglect, ways of life and happiness and the good life. He was awarded my PhD in 2015 by NOVA University of Lisbon, with a dissertation on the concepts of madness and lucidity in Plato’s Phaedrus. His most recent publications include “Μανία and ἀλήθεια in Plato’s Phaedrus” (The Classical Quarterly, 2020) and “(Mis)understanding ἐπιμέλεια ἀρετῆς (care for virtue) in Plato’s Euthydemus” (in Philosophy of Care – New Approaches to Vulnerability, Otherness and Therapy, Springer, 2021). He is currently working on a monograph on the antinatalist gnomic tradition in Antiquity: not to be born is the best for humans.
