Carsten Hansen

Principal areas of research: philosophy of perception, the metaphysics of truth and the conceptual foundations of vision science.  I also have a more than passing interest in Frege's philosophy of thought.

I have done quite a lot of Ph.D. and MA supervision.  In philosophy of mind and language I have supervised theses on topics such as: mental causation, externalism about meaning and mental content, naïve realist versus representationalist conceptions of perception, non-conceptual content, the nature and possibility of self-knowledge, truth-conditional conceptions of meaning, realism and anti-realism about meaning and the bearing of experimental pragmatics on issues in the philosophy of language.

 I have also supervised theses in ethics and action theory, the philosophy of psychiatry, and the nature of truth.  One of the PhD theses I am currently supervising concerns agrarian ethics and the ethics of food.
