Roger Ariew
Professor
Department Chair


Ph.D. Illinois, 1976. Joined the Philosophy Department faculty at USF in 2004 after post-doc at the University of Chicago and many years at Virginia Tech. His principal interests concern the relations between philosophy, science, and society in the early modern period. Ariew is the author of Descartes and the Last Scholastics (Cornell University Press, 1999), coauthor of Historical Dictionary of Descartes and Cartesian Philosophy (Scarecrow Press, 2003), editor and translator such works as Descartes, Philosophical Essays (Hackett, 2000) and Pascal, Pensées (Hackett, 2005), and editor of the quarterly journal Perspectives on Science: Historical, Philosophical, Social (MIT Press). He has been awarded multiple fellowships from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) as well as numerous research grants from NEH and the National Science Foundation; he has co-directed two NEH Summer Seminars, one on Descartes and another on Leibniz. He is currently working on a variety of topics, including the reception of Descartes' philosophy and science in late seventeenth-century France: Descartes and the First Cartesians, under contract with Oxford University Press.
