Francesca Bordogna U.S.; science and philosophy; psychology and the human sciences Office: 103C Harris |
Francesca Bordogna (Ph.D. University of Chicago, 1998) studies the history of science and the history of philosophy, and the ways they intersect. Her special interests include the history of psychical research, of psychiatry, and of psychology. She recently completed her first book, a study of the ways in which William James negotiated the relationships between philosophy and the human sciences (William James at the Boundaries: Philosophy, the Human Sciences, and the Geography of Knowledge, University of Chicago Press, forthcoming). For her current project, “The Pragmatist Hotel: Traveling Philosophers and the Creation of an International Pragmatist Network, 1890-1915,” she has received a fellowship from the Rockefeller Foundation at the National Humanities Center. She has also received grants from the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science (Berlin), the Franke Institute for the Humanities (University of Chicago), and the Alice Kaplan Institute for the Humanities at Northwestern University. |
