Guest Lecture by Jason Stanley (Yale)

The Department of Philosophy is delighted to host a guest lecture by Jason Stanley, the Jacob Urowsky Professor of Philosophy at Yale University. Dr. Stanley is best known for his contributions to philosophy of language and epistemology, which often draw on and influence other fields, including linguistics and cognitive science. In his most recent work, he has brought tools from philosophy of language and epistemology to bear on questions of political philosophy. Dr. Stanley is currently completing his sixth book, The Politics of Language, co-authored with David Beaver and forthcoming from Princeton University Press at the end of 2023.
