Research Interests

My research interests span feminist philosophy, post-Kantian continental philosophy, the history of philosophy, and aesthetics.

Currently I am working on women in nineteenth-century philosophy. My work on this includes the edited collection Frances Power Cobbe: Essential Writings of a Nineteenth-Century Feminist Philosophy (Oxford University Press, 2022), a Cambridge Element on Frances Power Cobbe (Cambridge University Press, 2022), Women Philosophers in Nineteenth-Century Britain (Oxford University Press, 2023), Women on Philosophy of Art: Britain 1770-1900 (Oxford University Press, 2024), and most recently the Oxford Handbook of Nineteenth-Century British and American Women Philosophers, co-edited with Lydia Moland (Oxford University Press, 2025).

I have created the Julia Wedgwood site (), a website making available the writings of this neglected Victorian philosopher.

Previously I've published books on Hegel's philosophy of nature, Luce Irigaray, feminist philosophy, popular music, German idealism, and birth. I've held a Philip Leverhulme Prize, a Leverhulme Fellowship and a Leverhulme Major Research Fellowship.

I've also edited the Edinburgh Critical History of Nineteenth-Century Philosophy (Edinburgh University Press, 2011), and co-edited the Routledge Companion to Feminist Philosophy (Routledge, 2017).

I have co-edited the journal the Hegel Bulletin and been an associate editor and interim co-editor of Hypatia: A Journal of Feminist Philosophy.

I am particularly keen to supervise PhD projects in relation to my current interests in nineteenth-century women philosophers.
