In this interview, Clelia Crialesi, a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow, delves into her pioneering research project, MUCH, funded by the European Commission. Focusing on the philosophical and mathematical intersections of 14th-century Italy, Clelia explores themes such as quantity, abstraction, and the unknown, revealing their significance in shaping both medieval and modern thought. She also discusses her forthcoming book, Mathematics and Philosophy at the Turn of the First Millennium: Abbo of Fleury on Calculus, shedding light on the rich interplay between arithmetic, theology, and natural philosophy. From uncovering the intellectual landscape of premodern Europe to reflecting on the challenges and opportunities in her field, Clelia offers a compelling glimpse into her work and its lasting impact on the study of the history of philosophy and mathematics.

MarieArt is a renowned artist from Messina, Sicily. I first met her by chance, and I was immediately captivated by the triumph of shapes, emotions, and colours emanating from her paintings. As the new year begins, already steeped in concerns and fears of an uncertain future, I can think of no better way to start it than by embarking on a journey of hope and creativity through a conversation with MarieArt. In this interview, MarieArt takes us through her artistic journey, emphasising her unique approach to blending tradition, experimentation, and contemporary themes. She reflects on the transformative role of art in society, explaining how her works – infused with unconventional materials like salt, sugar, and stucco – carry crucial symbolic messages of hope and renewal. Her deep connection to Sicilian culture, with its vibrant colours, myths, and traditions, serves as a constant source of inspiration, anchoring her creative expression.
