Autorenporträt
Christopher A. Dustin earned his Ph.D. in Philosophy from Yale University, where he completed a dissertation under the direction of Jonathan Lear. While a graduate student, he was awarded a Fulbright Fellowship for independent study in Paris. He has taught at Holy Cross since 1991, chaired the Department of Philosophy from 2000-07, directed the college's First-Year Program (2007-08) and the Core Human Questions cluster of its Montserrat program (2008-12). A recipient of the Holy Cross Distinguished Teacher of the Year Award, Professor Dustin has lectured and published widely on Plato, Aristotle, Kierkegaard, Heidegger, and Thoreau, and on topics at the intersection of ethics, aesthetics, metaphysics, the philosophy of nature, and religion. He is co-author, with Joanna Ziegler, of Practicing Mortality: Art, Philosophy, and Contemplative Seeing (Palgrave Macmillan, 2005) and is currently at work on a book entitled Arts of Indirection: Freedom and Truth-Telling in Plato, Kierkegaard, and Thoreau. Denise Schaeffer is associate professor of political science at the College of the Holy Cross. Her publications include Rousseau on Education, Freedom, and Judgment (forthcoming); Plato: Euthydemus (with Gregory McBrayer and Mary P. Nichols, 2011), and articles and chapters on Plato, Aristotle, Rousseau, and Nietzsche.
