Francey Russell

Assistant Professor, Philosophy Departments at Barnard College and Columbia University.

I work on issues in moral psychology and ethics broadly construed, overlapping with topics in social philosophy and aesthetics (especially film).  In terms of figures, I work mostly on Kant and Freud, but also write about Nietzsche, Stanley Cavell, and James Baldwin.
I sometimes write art and film criticism .
