Brandon Beasley, Ph.D.

I am a Lecturer in the Departments of Humanities and General Education at Mount Royal University, and in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Calgary. 

I work on pragmatist approaches to intentionality, meaning, normativity, and naturalism, animated by the question of the place of mind and agency in the natural world. As such, my work engages with issues in contemporary philosophy of mind and language, as well as, and in interaction with, work on historical pragmatist philosophers (in particular Dewey, Peirce, and Sellars). I also work on Kant and Hegel and, in general, at the intersection of German Idealism, pragmatism, and analytic philosophy.
