Til Eyinck

I am completing my PhD in philosophy at the Cologne Center for Contemporary Epistemology and the Kantian Tradition under the supervision of Sven Bernecker and Sofie Møller. My interests sit at the intersection of social, modal, and formal epistemology.

I was a visiting scholar at the University of Oxford (hosted by Neil Levy) and at the University of St Andrews (hosted by Franz Berto).

In my work, I am particularly interested in how purely imagined things shape our world. On the formal side, I am concerned with fictions and logical possibilities; on the applied side, I am interested in their impact. To date, I have authored publications on social epistemology, modal logic, Wittgenstein’s early philosophy, and the philosophy of fiction (my PhD).

My journalistic pieces, which are often thematically related to my academic work, have appeared in Frankfurter Rundschau and Die Welt, among others. Here, you will find info about these matters, news/upcoming events, art, and even more contingent stuff.
