Goodmorning, I am a student in philosophy at University of Bologna, in Italy.
I'm an italian native speaker, but I'm attending an English class to reach C1 level.
I have a badge in Information Literacy released by University of Bologna, which is a certification for my ability to do research and to write the results in an academic paper with proper bibliography.
I'm working at the moment on my bacheleor thesis about the problem of skepticism (Plato, Descartes and analytical philosophy), and on a paper regarding taxonomy in Aristotle and Illuminism (Diderot and D'Alambert).
My lack of previous experience is the reason why I guess it will take at least one or two months for an in-depth study of the philosopher we'll choose and for an accurate writing.
I'm studying at the moment contemporary epistemology in analytical philosophy: Alvin Goldman, Clarence Irwing Lewis, Fred Dretske, Robert Nozick, Michael Bergmann, Alvin Plantinga, Ernest Sosa, Duncan Pritchard and so on.
I had previously studied modern thinkers, mainly Giordano Bruno, René Descartes, Blaise Pascal, Thomas Hobbes and Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
I'm mainly interested in the problem of skepticism, determinism among scientific knowledge, classification in natural sciences, existentialism and humanistic psychology (Martin Heidegger, Karl Jaspers, Ludwig Binswanger, Erwin Straus, Ronald Laing.
Thank you for your attention.
Best regards,
Gabriel Giannini
