Christopher Fynsk
Résumé
Christopher Ingebreth Fynsk (born August 30, 1952) is an American philosopher. He is Professor and Dean of the Division of Philosophy, Art, and Critical Thought at the European Graduate School in Saas-Fee, Switzerland and Professor Emeritus at the University of Aberdeen. He is well known for his work relating the political and literary aspects of continental philosophy. Fynsk's work is closely involved with that of Martin Heidegger, Maurice Blanchot, Emmanuel Levinas, Walter Benjamin and several contemporary artists, including Francis Bacon and Salvatore Puglia.
Fynsk received his doctorate from the Department of Romance Studies at Johns Hopkins University in 1981, following a Diplôme d’Etudes Avancées in Philosophy from the University of Strasbourg. His supervisor at Johns Hopkins was René Girard, while at Strasbourg he worked with Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe and Jean-Luc Nancy. Fynsk taught at the latter university from 1985 to 1987, and at Binghamton University from 1981 to 2004. Since 2003 he teaches at the European Graduate School in Saas-Fee, Switzerland. In 2004 he moved to the University of Aberdeen to join the faculty of the School of Language and Literature, and form the Centre for Modern Thought.
