Timothy Stoll
Profile
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy. My research focuses on post-Kantian German thought, with a particular emphasis on Nietzsche, Schopenhauer, Schiller and German Romanticism. In addition to a number of papers about these figures, I am currently working on a book project on Nietzsche's first work, The Birth of Tragedy. I teach classes on Kant鈥檚 practical and theoretical philosophy, Nietzsche, and a variety of other themes in German philosophy.
