Professor Tessarolo has been a teacher in other Italian
universities: at the faculty of Sociology in Trento, where she was
a grant recipient and a researcher; at the Faculties of Political
Science and Communication Science in Trieste, where she was
an associate professor. The cultural aspect of communication
and the symbolic construction of culture underlie her scientific
preparation and for this reason her interests range in a number
of fields which are connected to one another as they have all
developed from a wider symbolic system. Her main studies
have focused on the field of human, interpersonal and cultural
communication, to which the perspective of Symbolic Interactionism is applied. She specialized in the study of artistic communication and
language sociology. As regards the former, she was in charge of several ministerial funds
and, as a linguistic expert, she was a member of the international research group that studied
border languages in Europe (“Border Discourse: Changing Identities, Changing Nations,
Changing Stories in European Border Countries” under the leadership of Ulrike H.
Meinhof). In her work she unites theoretical research with the qualitative and quantitative
methodologies of sociological research. Her main publications in the field of artistic
communication include: “L’espressione musicale e le sue funzioni [Musical expression and its
functions]” (1983, Giuffrè); “La poesia tra individuo e società [Poetry between the individual
and society]” (2003, Unipress); “L’arte contemporanea e il suo pubblico [Contemporary art and
its public]” (2009, Angeli); In addition, as regards both domains, she has published works in
Italian and international Journals. As regards language: “Minoranze linguistiche e immagine
della lingua [Linguistic minorities and the image of the language]” (1990, Angeli); “La
comunicazione interpersonale [Interpersonal communication]” (2007/2012, Laterza). As regards
other cultural processes: “Divismo vecchio e nuovo [Old and new stardom]” (1998, Cleup) and
“Moda e comunicazione [Fashion and communication]” (2001/2004, Il poligrafo). She is the
founder and has been the scientific director of the journal Metis since 1994 (Cleup, Padua)
and she is on the board of the Interdisciplinary Journal of Family Studies (Padua University
Press). She is also a board member of many other Italian journals and of the scientific
committee of a number of sociology series. She is a member of national and international
