Giovanna Rudis is a recent graduate of Boston University, where she completed her BA in History with honors. Her research centers on early modern Europe, with a particular interest in the intersection of politics, art, and identity in the Medici court. She previously conducted independent research at the Archivio di Stato di Firenze for her senior thesis on Pope Leo X’s use of visual media in diplomacy and political self-fashioning. During her internship this summer, Giovanna hopes to deepen her skills in archival analysis, with a particular interest in Medici postal networks.
