Research Area
I specialize in the interpretation of Edmund Husserl and, relatedly, in the philosophy of language and the philosophy of mind. I'm working on two main projects.
1) Clarifying the impact of metasemantics on the philosophy of language
Since S. Kripke's Naming and Necessity, the distinction between 'semantics' and 'metasemantics' has gradually become more widespread. This has changed our understanding of what problems the philosophy of language should address. I'm working on tracing how this happened.
2) Metasemantic interpretation of the concept of meaning in early and middle Husserl
With the prospect that it is important to interpret Husserl in terms of metasemantics in order to clarify the achievements and limitations of his phenomenology, I am working on an evaluation of Husserl's concept of meaning from Logical Investigations to Ideas I.
