Federica Gregoratto
Interim Professor of Practical Philosophy, University of Lucerne (Switzerland)
I'm based at the University of Lucerne, where I teach practical philosophy. My work moves between Hegelian critical theory, American pragmatism, feminist philosophy, and the philosophy of emotions. Lately I've been thinking a lot about love (and its end), and psychic suffering, like depression. Alongside my academic work, I write for a broader public and am developing philosophy as a form of socio-personal therapy. I live in Zurich (Switzerland), and talk and write in English, Italian and German.
Academic writing
Journal articles, book chapters, and edited volumes on critical theory, love, and recognition.
