Bruno Cassarà

I am the Alumni Dissertation Fellow at Fordham University, Philosophy Department. I am pursuing my PhD through a dual-degree program (co-tutelle) with the University of Bari, Italy. My work centers around the theme of desire, and my dissertation formulates a phenomenology of desire as a fundamental structure of lived experience. I specialize in German and French phenomenology, hermeneutics, and 20th century European philosophy more generally. I have competences in Kantian and post-Kantian German philosophy, contemporary Italian philosophy (esp. phenomenology and hermeneutics), the history of philosophy, and normative and hermeneutic ethics. I have also translated various pieces from Italian and French.
