Stockholm university

The history of philosophy studies philosophical problems through their history and connection to literature, art or politics.

Scholars in Stockholm are interested in both canonical and marginalized philosophers. Among the philosophical problems addressed in this research are the conditions of exile, but also historical theory, the tradition of historical thought and questions of temporality.
