Her hometown was once part of Magna Graecia (Greeter Greece), a Greek colony. Furthermore, it is said that the Visigoth king, Alaric I, died in Cosenza and his body and treasures are still buried there. Letizia has always been fascinated by the history and culture of her country which are constant elements in her works.<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_191\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-191\" style=\"width: 2048px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-191 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.authors.buprojects.uk\/letizia-parise\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2021\/04\/cosenza.jpg\" alt=\"Cosenza.

However, the day she read Shakespeare for the first time, changed the course of her life.<\/h3>\n<h3>From that moment on, one of her biggest dreams was to live in England, London in particular, where she moved to attend university at the age of eighteen. She has a degree in English Literature and is currently attending a Creative Writing MA at Bournemouth University.<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_225\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-225\" style=\"width: 406px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-225\" src=\"http:\/\/www.authors.buprojects.uk\/letizia-parise\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2021\/05\/IMG-20210512-WA0046.jpg\" alt=\"Letizia Parise\" width=\"406\" height=\"409\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.authors.buprojects.uk\/letizia-parise\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2021\/05\/IMG-20210512-WA0046.jpg 670w, https:\/\/www.authors.buprojects.uk\/letizia-parise\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2021\/05\/IMG-20210512-WA0046-298x300.jpg 298w, https:\/\/www.authors.buprojects.uk\/letizia-parise\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2021\/05\/IMG-20210512-WA0046-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 406px) 100vw, 406px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-225\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Letizia Parise.
