Biography

Zoe Anthony researches and teaches in the areas of nineteenth and twentieth century Continental philosophy, philosophical and religious ethics, and the academic study of religion. Her research interests constellate around questions of social and political philosophy, and the interaction between religious and philosophical ways of responding to problems of ethical and moral significance. Her book, Suffering Time: Nietzsche and the Generativity of Suffering, explores the contours of Nietzsche’s response to the problem of suffering in three of his published works. She is also interested in questions of religion, violence, and nonviolence, and the deployment of the language of nonviolence in protest settings. She is currently working on the affective and psychological dimensions of ressentiment within right-wing political discourse.
