Professor Peter Sedgwick’s, Cardiff University. His teaching and research spans Philosophy & Literature, Visual Culture, Cultural Theory, History of Ideas, and Modern European Philosophy. He began his academic studies with a degree in History of Ideas (i.e. the history of thought).

Nietzsche's Justice (McGill-Queen's University Press, 2013).
