Emanuela Bianchi's research explores the intersections of sex, gender, and sexuality within ancient Greek metaphysics and their enduring influence on contemporary philosophical and theoretical discourses. Her work encompasses a genealogical approach to matter and bodies, phenomenology, psychoanalysis, poststructuralism, queer theory, and feminism. She focuses on ancient Greek notions of genos (kinship; kind) and physis (nature) in literature and philosophy, the role of eros in Aristotle, and the treatment of time and narrative in the thought of Luce Irigaray.
