Autorenporträt
Michael Kremer is Mary R. Morton Distinguished Service Professor of Philosophy, Emeritus at the University of Chicago. He received his PhD in Philosophy from the University of Pittsburgh, then taught at the University of Notre Dame from 1986 to 2001. His dissertation and early publications were in logic and the philosophy of language. Beginning in the mid-1990s he developed a passion for the history of analytic philosophy, initially focusing on Frege, Russell, and the early Wittgenstein. Over the past decade he has turned his attention to mid-twentieth-century Oxford ordinary language philosophy, especially Gilbert Ryle, as well as the philosophy of Margaret Macdonald. Cheryl Misak is University Professor and Professor of Philosophy at the University of Toronto. She works on American pragmatism, the history of analytic philosophy, ethics and political philosophy, and the philosophy of medicine. She is the author of several books, including Cambridge Pragmatism (OUP, 2018) and The American Pragmatists (OUP, 2015), as well as an acclaimed biography of the philosopher Frank Ramsey (OUP, 2021).
