David Sanson

I am an assistant professor of philosophy at the Ohio State University. I work primarily in contemporary metaphysics. A lot of my research focuses on trying to make sense of the commitments of a tensed or A-theoretic theory of time, and the associated view, called Presentism, that only the present is real. I have allied interests in the philosophy of language, the philosophy of action, and medieval philosophy, and I’ve done some work on the history of the Liar Paradox in the medieval Arabic tradition.

When not working, I am probably playing with my daughter, working in the garden, or watching TV. If I were the person I’d like to be, I’d be collecting wild mushrooms and guerilla camping from my East German folding kayak.

You can stalk find me on Flickr and Facebook and Twitter and Github.
