Fiorella Pierantozzi

Fiorella Pierantozzi is an Italo-Mexican philosopher, writer, and poet, originally from Monterrey, Mexico. Her work moves between philosophical poetry, essay, and short fiction, anchored by a question few literatures dare to hold without looking away: what it means to live with awareness and with form.

She holds a degree in Philosophy and completed a diploma program in literary creation at the Universidad Iberoamericana (2014); she specialized in Spanish language editing and style at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (2016). Her research areas are Aesthetics and Ethics, with particular focus on animal ethics. She is part of the directory of Filósofas. Inclusión + Historia, an academic platform dedicated to the visibility of women philosophers across Latin America.

In 2015, she was a finalist for the International Poetry Award “Un café con literatos” in Madrid, Spain.

Her books include Odas al Mundo, Por qué baila el Hombre, Iridiscencias, Vive tu vida con filosofía, and Con ojos de animal. She has published works in Spanish, Italian, English, and German. Odas al Mundo was reviewed by Latino Book Review (2017), a leading U.S. publication in Latin American literature.

She has participated in international anthologies: in 2017, she was included in the FEIPOL anthology of the Latin American International Poetry Festival (McAllen, Texas); in 2018, in Beacons of Hope: A Tribute to Mothers; and in 2020, in We Are the VOICE, a commemorative compilation of the International Festival of Poetry and Art "Grito de Mujer."

Her writing does not illustrate philosophical ideas. It inhabits them.
