At the heart of Kant’s philosophy lies the distinction between our finite, dependent nature and our rational, self-active nature; being both finite and rational is what makes us human. My research is unified by the ambition to show that this distinction is unstable and must, by Kant’s own lights, ultimately collapse: in the limit, reason consumes our finite nature.

Driven by this ambition, I work on a range of topics in Kant, covering his metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and metaethics. I also aim to show that, when pushed to its limit, Kant’s philosophy echoes that of his rationalist predecessors, while foreseeing key elements in Hegel. My interest further extends to Kantian positions in present-day epistemology, metaphysics, and metaethics.
