Rockmore, Tom

Tom ROCKMORE is Professor and former Chairman in the Department of Philosophy at Duquesne University (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) and McAnulty College Distinguished Professor. His current research interests encompass all of modern philosophy, with special emphasis on se-lected problems as well as figures in German idealism (Kant, Fichte, Hegel), Marx and recent continental philosophy (Heidegger, Habermas, Lukacs). He is continuing to explore the episte-mology of German idealism as well as the relation between philosophy and politics. His most recent work concerns a new theory of knowledge as intrinsically historical. He is the author of many books, including Kant and Idealism (2007).
