I teach philosophy at the University of Patras, Greece. My PhD (University of Pittsburgh) was on motivational conflict and practical rationality. My later work is in ethics, philosophy of action, contemporary Aristotelian and Kantian moral philosophy, and the history of philosophy in the 20th century (Iris Murdoch, Elizabeth Anscombe, Philippa Foot). I have a special philosophical interest in plant and animal lives, in gender studies, in the collapse of ways of living and in art (film, photography and the novel). I am currently writing a book entitled Moral Growth; Virtue and Disruptive Experiences (under contract with Cambridge University Press) and editing a volume of essays on the wartime quartet, with Clare Mac Cumhaill, Cathy Mason and Rachael Wiseman (under consideration by Oxford University Press). I’m co-editing (with Constantine Sandis) the Why Philosophy Matters book series (Bloomsbury) and I've co-edited (with Matthew Boyle) a collection of essays in honor of John McDowell, entitled Reason in Nature (Harvard University Press, 2022). I have translated (with Constantine Sandis) Anscombe’s Intention into Greek (Crete University Press).
