Peter Poellner

Peter Poellner is a Professor of Philosophy at the University of Warwick.[1]

Philosophy

He is considered by many to be Britain's foremost expert on the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. His more general research interests are related most strongly to 19th- and 20th-century European Continental Philosophy (especially phenomenologists such as Edmund Husserl, Max Scheler, Jean-Paul Sartre and the early Martin Heidegger).[2]

According to Brian Leiter, he has challenged the view that libertarian views of free will and moral responsibility are central to Western religious, moral, and cultural traditions.[3]
