At Masters level I teach a course entitled 'Setting Europe Ablaze' - on the Resistance in Europe. I also teach courses on Modern Italian history and film, and at honours level I teach classes which closely reflect my research interests: The Resistance movement and Terrorism. I teach translation into English to third year and honours students, as well as 'writing skills' and interpreting. I teach Italian language at all levels and particularly enjoy teaching beginners as they learn a lot very quickly. 62-81 (2012) The 'spaces' of anti-Fascism in Italy today Cooke Philip The Routledge Handbook of Contemporary Italy History, Politics and Society (2018) (2018)

I am particularly interested in how knowledge, ideas and concepts circulate.Īt Strathclyde I have had a number of administrative roles, including Director of Research for the School of Humanities. Recently I have developed interests in the History of Science and within it the history of medicine. This means that my courses are interdisciplinary in nature, and try to understand contemporary Italy from a variety of different angles and approaches. I am particularly interested in the interaction between history and culture and in the 'political use of history'.

I was promoted to Senior Lecturer in 2000 and to Professor of Italian History and Culture in 2013. I came to Scotland from the South of England in 1984, and have lived here ever since, apart from several years living in various cities in Italy (Rome, Milan, Siena and, above all, Florence where I have done a lot of my research and collaborate with the history journal Passato e presente). I took Italian from scratch at Edinburgh having studied French and Spanish at school. I joined Strathclyde University as a lecturer in Italian in 1993, after 8 years at Edinburgh University where I took a first degree in Italian with Russian Studies.
