Alessando Capone has a doctorate in linguistics (University of Oxford) and a doctorate in philosophy of language (University of Palermo). He is full professor of linguistics. He is also a series editor for Springer, an editor for Intercultural Pragmatics, author of five monographs and three books of poems, editor of 16 international volumes, and author of papers published in top international journals. He is a board member of numerous international journals.Pietro Perconti is full professor of Philosophy of mind at the University of Messina, Department of cognitive science. His research interests include social cognition, consciousness, and the social role of cognitive science. In the past, research areas also cover history of  the Western philosophy, in particular the German classical age. Perconti is the author of over 100 publications, including eight books. The first book is Kantian Linguistics: Theories of mental representation and the linguistic transformation of Kantism (Nodus, Munster, 1999). The latter, The Future of the Artificial Mind (with A. Plebe) (CRC, 2022), provides an outline of what the artificial mind is now and the social impact it might have in the future. Roberto Graci has a PhD in Cognitive Sciences from the University of Messina. His work focuses on the communicative competence of people with aphasia and its implication on the semantics/pragmatics debate. He has published several papers emphasising the productive comparison between theoretical pragmatics and speech-language pathology. Roberto Graci has also actively participated in important events on linguistics and philosophy of language, including Pragmasophia 3 and the XIV Congress of SIFA (Italian Society of Analytical Philosophy).
