Gerad Gentry

Dr. Gerad Gentry is an Alexander von Humboldt Faculty Fellow at the Universität-Potsdam and Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin working on Kant and Hegel. His current research focus is on conceptions of purposiveness in (i) the emergent method of Hegel’s logic, (ii) epistemic necessity, (iii) ethical normativity, and (iv) aesthetic formation; as well as purposiveness as a unifying thread to Kant’s third Critique (aesthetic and teleological powers of judgment).

Dr. Gironi has also worked on contemporary realist movements, and the philosophy of science.
