(elect), and Professor of Theology (Durham U., Hon.) and of Patristics and Church History (KUL). Recent books and articles include those listed below ("Works": selection). Elected Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, the Humboldt Network of Outstanding Researchers, the international Forum for Advanced Studies, and many academic societies. Member of many directive and scientific boards of scholarly series and journals and numerous international scholarly associations. Peer reviewer for prestigious scientific series and journals, and scientific consultant in tenure/hiring evaluations for outstanding Universities, as well as in advanced research funding for international scholarly Foundations and first-rate Universities. (Examples below, "Distinctions"; "Service".) She has taught courses and seminars, delivered many invited lectures, main lectures, public lectures, invited seminars, and conferences, and held senior research fellowships and senior visiting professorships in numerous (including topmost) Universities in Europe, North America, and Israel (examples below, "Invited Positions", "Distinctions"). She has developed courses and study programs, and never interrupted an intense scholarly activity for over two decades. She has been, and is, a member of steering committees and directive boards of scholarly societies and the director of many international research projects, seminars, panels, workshops, and publications. She actively promotes research and editorial endeavours. From 1996 onwards, Ramelli has published numerous books, articles, chapters, and reviews (examples below: "Works") in the main peer-reviewed academic venues, mostly in English; also in Italian, French, and German; some articles and books by her have been translated (when originally Italian) into English, French, German, Greek, etc. A number of her publications have substantially contributed to the advancement of scholarship, have received many positive reviews and citations, have suggested new avenues of research, have been discussed and referred to both in academic venues and in journals, newspapers, blogs, and interviews, and are must-reads. Newspapers and blogs have discussed her work as relevant to contemporary philosophical and theological debates, e.g. about human rights, social justice, time and eternity, soteriology, and eschatology.
Her books, articles, chapters, and reviews appear in world-leading scholarly journals and series (examples below: "Distinctions", "Publications"), on ancient philosophy, especially Platonism and Stoicism, first-millennium Christian philosophy, theology, and history, early Christianity (Greek and Latin, but also in part Syriac, Coptic, and Armenian—with a predilection for Origen of Alexandria and the Origenian tradition down to the Cappadocian Fathers, Evagrius Ponticus, Dionysius the Areopagite, Maximus the Confessor, and Eriugena, and including Augustine of Hippo whom she incorporates within the Origenian tradition); the New Testament, the reception of Scripture, imperial and late antiquity, ancient religions, classics, and the reception of classical culture in Christianity. She views patristic philosophy (esp. Platonism) as part and parcel of ancient and late antique philosophy, and endeavours to bridge the Philosophy-Theology-Classics divide. She promotes an integrative, but in-depth, study of antiquity and late antiquity, against a tendency to compartmentalise research, as well as of Philosophy and Theology and their interrelation, both in the past and in contemporary thought.See, e.g., her article on Neoplatonism in a Brill journal, JPT 2013:

THE REASON IT IS SO DIFFICULT IS THAT REAL, PEER-REVIEWED SCHOLARS LIKE DR. RAMELLI SAYS YER WRONG, PAL! AND GIVEN HER IMPRESSIVE CREDENTIALS, I'LL BELIEVE HER OVER YOUR BLOVIATION ANY DAY OF THE WEEK.
