The Department is deeply saddened by the death of Nenad Miščević at the age of 74. Nenad was affiliated with CEU for more than 20 years, first as the director of the Philosophy Doctoral Support program, then, following the establishment of the Department of Philosophy in 2000, as a visiting professor. Nenad was a larger-than-life figure with an entirely unique intellect. He had an astonishing breadth of knowledge, in analytic as well as continental philosophy, as well as in history, politics, natural science and many other things. Nenad did more than almost any other single person in Central-East Europe to establish a tradition of analytic philosophy there. Generations of philosophy students in Croatia, Slovenia and beyond are indebted to him for his teaching, his generous mentorship and his infectious enthusiasm for analytic philosophy. He will be sorely missed.
