I am truly delighted to be discussing this important subject here in Munich today

New, completely revised SEP entry up today on Syrianus, by my old KU Leuven colleague Roberto Granieri, alongside Christian Wildberg: plato.stanford.edu/entries/syrian…

ICS Ancient Philosophy Seminar Rachel Barney (University of Toronto): ‘Plato on the Normativity of Craft’ Monday 27th October, 2:00-4:00 pm Hybrid: Online & Room 243, Second Floor, Senate House, Malet Street, London WC1E 7HU All welcome! ics.sas.ac.uk/news-events/ev…

Enjoying Lily Lynch's review of Lea Ypi's recent book (jacobin.com/2025/10/lea-yp…). Esp. this last part - timely as I read Plato's Laws III: to think about a new constitution, need to take stock of previous political structures - the present and future depend verily on the past.

A Paper of mine "Proclus and the Grounding of Tense" just came out: scuoladifilosofia.it/uploads/fogli/…

Perhaps. But better (IMHO) to ask *why* such people (eg. Numenius' "Plato atticizing", etc) crafted such formulations as they did in the first place. This is why we need a study of past histories of philosophy - like we're doing here in Berlin: klassphil.hu-berlin.de/de/forschung-u…

Due to the uniformity, design, and color of the titles on the bookshelves in Goodnight Moon I am forced to assume that the bunny is getting a Greek & Latin education through the Loeb Classical Library.

Sign of the times. (Cf. Big Short for those wondering.)

After the University coming soon press.jhu.edu/books/title/12…

Just put up this blog post in which I defend the use of the term "philosophy" to describe non-European intellectual traditions. historyofphilosophy.net/philosophy-wha… #philosophy #globalphilosophy

New review of mine on Benedikt Krämer's 2020 monograph "Formen der Theologie in Plotins Enneaden" out now (finally—after 2 years...) in Plekos: plekos.uni-muenchen.de/2025/r-kraemer…

Freiburger Zeitschrift für Philosophie und Theologie 74.2 (2024): a section on Avicenna and the reception of Aristotle in physics and metaphysics; also Auriol's theory of language, Molina on God's scientia media, and Peckham's optics & Giotto's paintings. buff.ly/WrWiU3l
