Hanoch Ben-Yami's recent work is on logic and language; on various issues in the philosophy of mind; on questions of space and time, especially in relation to Special Relativity and Quantum Mechanics; on Descartes; and on Wittgenstein.
With his department’s move to Vienna in 2020, Ben-Yami decided to follow the example of The Vienna Circle and founded a geometrically inspired philosophy school, The Vienna Triangle. Echoing its Bermudian predecessor, this is an area in which philosophical theories encounter unpredictable conceptual turbulence, are sunk and disappear for ever. – As a homage to his new great catholic city, Ben-Yami is the founder, the member and the guiding spirit of The Triangle.
Qualification
