Early life and education

[edit]

In 1984, she received her PhD at Somerville College, Oxford under the supervision of Michael Dummett, with a dissertation on assertibility and truth. She studied at Erlangen/Nürnberg as a Von Humboldt Fellow and served as visiting professor at the University of Helsinki in 1986 and at the University of Bielefeld.[2] In 2009, Picardi was visiting fellow at the All Souls College, Oxford University.

Professional career

She was a member of the editorial committees of "Lingua e stile", "European Journal of Philosophy", "Iride", "Journal for the History of Analytic Philosophy", "New Series on the History of Analytic Philosophy". She was president of the Italian Society for Analytic Philosophy from 2000 until 2002.[3] Picardi served as director and later principal Investigator of Cogito, Research Centre in Philosophy.[4] and Member of Bologna Academy of Sciences.[5]

In 2009, she was a visiting fellow at All Souls College in Oxford. She translated Gottlob Frege's posthumous writings and other writings.[6] She had a central role in the diffusion of analytic philosophy in Italy through her translation and editorship of the works by contemporary philosophers such as Donald Davidson, Paul Grice, Hilary Putnam and Michael Dummett, of whom she edited the Italian edition of The logical Basis of Metaphysics. Picardi had an intellectual partnership with Michael Dummett. She translated and edited his lectures on the Origins of Analytic Philosophy, which preceded the publication of the original book.[7][8] She helped Dummett find a place to play old style Tarocchi in Bologna, an occasion that was relevant for the interests in tarots by the Dummett of many books on the subject.[9]
