Original Academic Research

In addition to being cited across disciplines, I’ve also contributed to the academic literature directly:

“Spinoza and Heidegger: Ontological Anticipation and Interpretation”
→ Dialogue: Journal of Phi Sigma Tau (Vol. 63, No. 1), Spring 2021

This peer-reviewed essay draws a comparative arc between Spinoza’s ethics and Heidegger’s fundamental ontology—proposing that both thinkers offer distinct, yet overlapping, frameworks for anticipating one’s ethical comportment in light of finitude. By tracing how each philosopher envisions the self’s relation to eternity, the paper illuminates an ontological account of ethical anticipation that neither collapses into determinism nor relies on free will.
