Andrew Cutrofello, PhD
Professor
Welcome to my Loyola homepage! I've been teaching at Loyola since 1994. I did my graduate work at Northwestern, where I had the good fortune to work with John McCumber. My research and teaching have clustered around three interrelated topics: the nature and significance of Kant's critical project, the genesis and stakes of the analytic/continental divide, and the philosophical reception of Shakespeare.
My approach to philosophy is holistic, historical, and comparative. You can get a sense of the kind of work I do by reading my article “‘”.
My professional service has included twelve years as editor of the Continental section of Philosophy Compass, two three-year terms on the Executive Committee of the Society for Phenomenology and Existential Philosophy, and one year on the program committee of the Central Division of the American Philosophical Association.
Please email me if you'd like to get in touch.
