About Sandra Lapointe
I’ve been teaching philosophy at Kansas State University since 2005. A Commonwealth alumna, I completed my PhD in 2000 at the University of Leeds (UK) and held various research positions (Montreal, Luxembourg, France) before landing my first tenure track job at Concordia University in Montreal. I specialize in the history of 19th and 20th century analytical philosophy in Europe. My publications include: Qu’est-ce que l’analyse? (Paris, Vrin, 2008); Bolzano contre Kant. Le nouvel Anti-Kant (Paris, Vrin, 2006); Bernard Bolzano : philosophie de la logique et théorie de la connaissance, (Special issue. Philosophique 30/1) and a number of articles and book chapters. I’m the founding journal manager of the Baltic International Yearbook of Cognition, Logic and Communication and a member of the Center for Cognitive Sciences and Semantics of the University of Latvia in Riga. From 2009-2011 I will be co-affiliated with the University of Leipzig, Germany as a fellow of the Humboldt Foundation.
Among other things, I am currently working on a book on Bernard Bolzano's philosophy commissioned for Palgrave-Macmillan's new series in the History of Analytical Philosophy.
