Hello there,
Thank you for taking the time to visit this page. This page provides a brief introduction to my academic work and life. I am a lecturer in the Philosophy Department at the National University of Singapore. There are some questions that I care very much about. Most of the time I spend at work goes into teaching and researching thoughts on these questions. Currently, I'm focusing on three inquiries that intrigue me. |

1 - What would it look like if 'care' was one of the key values in the classroom? I'm interested in thinking deeper about a pedagogy of care that can help us (as humans) reflect and clarify our own values; to help us understand and care for ourselves, those around us, and our world, in an authentic, compassionate and impactful way. We live ethical lives in a broken world, and a pedagogy of care helps us learn to navigate interpersonal and intrapersonal ethical dilemmas, decision making and dialogue. Recently, I've been engaging with these questions in my work on social epistemology and philosophical dialogue.
2 - Questions in the History of Philosophy! In Chinese Philosophy, I've been working on epistemology and moral emotions (particularly 'resentment'). I've also been recently excited by the letters of Wang Yangming. I'm also hoping to propose a novel theory of Humean Epistemology.
3 - How do we navigate suffering and pain in this world? What does pain tell us about the world that we live in, and how can we react to (seemingly) unexplainable pain?
From the other pages on this site, you'll see some of my current (and previous) thoughts and engagement with these questions. These, of course, are works-in-progress. Feel free to contact me ([email protected] or [email protected]) if you'd like to chat more about any of these.
Yours,
Daryl
