Taylor Carman (born 1965) is an American philosopher. He is a professor of philosophy at Barnard College, Columbia University.
Education and career
[edit]Carman earned his Ph.D. in philosophy from Stanford University, where he worked with Dagfinn Føllesdal, but was also influenced by Hubert Dreyfus.
Philosophical work
[edit]Carman's main areas of interest are in the philosophy of Martin Heidegger and in phenomenology. He is the author of Heidegger’s Analytic: Interpretation, Discourse, and Authenticity in Heidegger's Being and Time (2003) and Merleau-Ponty (2008), and the editor of The Cambridge Companion to Merleau-Ponty (2005). He is also co-editor of a philosophy series with Ashgate Publishing called "Intersection: Continental and Analytic Philosophy".
Hubert Dreyfus considered Carman to be one of the leading contemporary authorities on Heidegger and on Heidegger's concept of death in particular.[1] Carman was featured, along with Dreyfus, Charles Taylor, Albert Borgmann, Mark Wrathall and Sean Kelly, in the documentary Being in the World (2010), which explores the phenomenology of everyday life.[2]
