| Robin Jeshion
Professor of Philosophy
Ph.D., 1995, University of Chicago
Professor Jeshion’s research centers on the intersections of philosophy of mind, philosophy of language, and epistemology. She is especially interested in understanding the fundamental differences between thinking about objects “singularly,” as particulars, and thinking about them entirely via concepts. Jeshion was recently awarded an ACLS Burkhardt Residential Fellowship for Recently Tenured Scholars which will enable her to spend the 2005-06 academic year at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University, where she will be writing a book provisionally entitled “Singular Thought.” She also has a longstanding interest in the nature of our knowledge of arithmetic and the nature of our knowledge of our own mental states.
