Personal profile
Research overview
I am the Principal Investigator in a research project funded by the Leverhulme Trust, which started in August 2017 and continues until July 2021, on Theories of Paradox in Fourteenth-Century Logic: Edition and Translation of Key Texts. My interests extend from medieval theories in the philosophy of logic, language and mind, to the more modern concerns of relevance logic and the philosophy of logic.
Research interests
My main research interests remainsthe notion of logical consequence and logical paradox; and extend from medieval theories in the philosophy of language, mind and logic, to the more modern concerns of relevance logic and the philosophy of logic.
Future research
I propose to continue my research into theories of paradox and of logical consequence in the middle ages, with editions and translations of treatises by Walter Segrave, Roger Swyneshed, John Dumbleton and Paul of Venice.
