Hi, this is Aili Bresnahan. My current interests are primarily in the Philosophy of Art, Philosophy of Law and Metaphilosophy, with special focus on practice and methodology. What do artists, lawyers and philosophers do, with what medium, what output, for what purpose and to what effect? What is the structure of an artwork, legal argument or philosophic essay and how do they involve expression, rhetoric and/or interpretation? How are these works performed and received? These are some of the issues I hope to explore as I hone in on a more specific dissertation topic.
In the meantime I would welcome any advice, thoughts or suggestions on any of the above. Source referrals are also welcome.
