Anna Boncompagni

After Graduation and a Master's Degree in Communication Sciences (1998) and after working as a journalist for ten years, I turned to philosophy and obtained a second Master's Degree (University of Florence, 2010) and the Doctorate (University of Roma Tre, 2014). My PhD Thesis was published as a volume in 2016 (?Wittgenstein and Pragmatism. On Certainty in the Light of Peirce and James?, Palgrave Macmillan). My research interests include the philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein, American pragmatism, and a variety of topics in epistemology and philosophy of language. Among my achievements are book chapters published and forthcoming with Oxford University Press, Routledge, Springer, and Cambridge University Press. I am presently Research and Teaching Assistant at the University of Florence, Italy, where I develop my own research and help in teaching and administrative duties. In the academic year 2017-2018 I am teaching a graduate seminar on ?William James and Wittgenstein on emotions?.I am presently developing a project in social epistemology inspired by the later Wittgenstein?s reflections on doubt and certainty and by the recent perspective of ?hinge epistemology?, as well as by research in epistemic injustice and feminist epistemology.
