Matt Dougherty is the FWF Cluster of Excellence 'Knowledge in Crisis' Assistant Professor in Philosophy. His research focuses on epistemology (especially where it intersects with the philosophy of mind and action), ethics, and the history of philosophy. He has written articles on know-how and skill, on virtue and virtues, on moral psychology, and on figures from recent history of philosophy, such as Henri Bergson, Martin Heidegger, Iris Murdoch, and Gilbert Ryle.
Downloadable versions of his publications can be found on his PhilPeople page, here.
In addition to the above, he is currently thinking about truth, and he is editing two books: The Rylean Mind, which is a handbook on the philosophy of Gilbert Ryle, and a book on the so-called 'Wartime' or 'Oxford Quartet' (Elizabeth Anscombe, Philippa Foot, Mary Midgley, and Iris Murdoch) and their relation to continental European philosophy. Both will be published by Routledge.
Prior to coming to CEU, he was a University Assistant at the University of Vienna and held teaching positions at the Universities of Cambridge and Oxford. He earned his PhD at Cambridge in 2019, an MPhil also at Cambridge, an MA at Virginia Tech, and a BSc at Pepperdine University.
