Yuri Chung obtained his PhD at the University of Rome La Sapienza in 2020 writing a dissertation on Modernism and its effects on the libretto. Previously, in his university career, he wrote a thesis in his three-year degree on the relationship between Sir Walter Scott s novel, The bride of Lammermoor, and Donizetti s opera, Lucia di Lammermoor. In his master s degree s thesis, instead, he focused on the collaboration between Stravinsky and Auden in The Rake s Progress. He published the following two essays: Napoleon e l opera lirica in Letteratura e storia, for Lithos in 2021 and From The Beggar s Opera to The Threepenny Opera, a Long-Standing Relationship of Text and Music in Marriage between Literature and Music, for Cambridge Scholars Publishing in 2022. Recently, he wrote an essay, Beckett s Neither, an anti-opera in Rome which will be published shortly.
