Italian academics mourn the untimely death of a professor.
On February 5, local time, the Dante University for Foreigners (UNIDA) in Reggio Calabria, Italy, released an obituary that Professor Domenico Siclari, vice president of the school, died of covid-19 on the evening of February 4, local time, at the age of 37.
Professor Siclari tested positive for COVID-19 in mid-January and initially showed no particularly worrisome symptoms; however, his condition suddenly deteriorated and he was hospitalized. Because of his serious illness, he was transferred from Gome to Catanzaro, the capital of the Calabria region, where he received extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (Ecmo), but ultimately failed to save his life. Covid-19 has separated him forever from his wife Simone and their daughter Miriam, and also from the world he works in, and despite his young age, he already has a wealth of experience and has played an absolutely important role in school administration and in the field of his research.
According to the University of Dante, "[Professor Siclary] was an outstanding scholar" and that "the reason he is highly respected in academia and loved by everyone is his professionalism." He was supposed to embark on a glorious journey in life at the University of Dante, but was interrupted by this sudden illness. ”
Professor Ciccari, born in Reggio Di Calabria in 1984, began his academic career after graduating from the University of the Mediterranean, followed by a doctorate in the second largest public law in Rome. In 2015, he became a Fellow in Public and Administrative Law and An Associate Professor of Administrative Law at the University of Dante, and since 2019 he has been a Full Professor of Administrative Law at the University. At the University of Dante, he teaches degree courses in public law institutions, administrative law, administrative law of social services, law of local authorities, legislation of cultural heritage, public law of arts and culture and law of cultural heritage.
One of his classmates said, "It was bad news that Professor Ciclari was a friend and PhD classmate of mine at the Second University in Rome, and he later received the Chair in Administrative Law at the University for his excellent and groundbreaking research, including at the European Academy of Auditors. I pray for him and his loved ones.".
Acting Mayor of Reggio Di Calabria, Paulo Brunetti, and City Councilor Angela Martino, who is in charge of university relations, "expressed their "deep condolences" on behalf of the Municipality of Reggio Calabria for the untimely death of Professor Ciclari.
In his letter of condolence, Giovanni Verducci, mayor of Motta San Giovanni, wrote, "Professor of Public Law and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Dante, Professor Ciclari, is a sincere friend of the Murtessy community, he often participates in demonstrations, and he has an admirable and unusual personality and professionalism. In March 2019, as Director of the Enzo Silvestri Research Center, he promoted a strategic collaboration between the Municipality of Motta San Giovanni and the University of Dante. Growth is achieved through local development, economic and employment policies. ...... In order to remember him, all future activities of the municipality with the University of Dante will be named after him. ”
