Biography
Jesse D. Goodman is a second-year PhD. student and teaching fellow. He is primarily interested in 19th and 20th century philosophy, especially Anglophone, German, and Scandinavian philosophies from the 鈥渓ong nineteenth century鈥� (1789-1914). He is also interested in contemporary aesthetics and political philosophy, especially as they relate to the cultural and political inheritances of the 19th century. To this end, his work has engaged philosophers including S酶ren Kierkegaard, Walter Benjamin, Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Delany, and Ottobah Cugoano, and artists and poets including T.S Eliot, Marcel Duchamp, Bob Dylan, and Robert Smithson. Prior to md传媒国产剧 College, he received a B.A. from Belmont University and an M.A. from Duquesne University, both in philosophy. In his rare time off, he enjoys non-philosophical reading and writing, hiking, and picking country guitar.
