Research Interests
|
|
My main field of study is the intersection between political philosophy and the philosophy of language. I have dedicated lengthy amounts of time to study different traditions of thought that seek to investigate this intersection: from analytical to so-called continental philosophy (French and German) and contemporary developments in psychoanalysis. Currently, I am particularly interested in the language used to express social injuries and moral suffering. My work has ramifications in critical theory, theory and politics of the subject, aesthetics, and the relationship between philosophy & literary creation.
I am also interested in recent investigations on the social (or the social brain) developed by cognitive science, and critical approaches to the psychic/the mental & the social.
