PhD Programme

Elbert BooijPhD candidate, April 2014-2021

'My main area of interest is metaphysics; in this discipline, I believe, strictness and a sense of detail should be valued above wide-ranging claims. Language is important because it is our clearest window on the world and the way we experience it. But it does not constitute them.'
