Chair of Philosophy II
I'm fixed-term lecturer at the Chair of Philosophy II at University of Bayreuth since 2023. Before coming to Bayreuth, I was lecturer at University of Bamberg (2020-2022). I studied philosophy at University of Leipzig (B.A.), National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (ERASMUS) and Humboldt-University of Berlin (M.A.).
My current research focusses on theories of distributive justice. I am interested in their historical development since antiquity, and especially in their conceptualization in baroque scholasticism. My dissertation is on Juan Zapata y Sandovals De iustitia distributiva (Valladolid 1609). My thesis contains a selective edition of the Latin text and its translation into German, and a philosophical commentary on the selected parts. Other topics I’m interested in are political philosophy in general, philosophy of religion, history of philosophy, especially Classical Greek and Classical German philosophy.
