Anna Marmodoro, Ph.D.

Professor of Philosophy | Leonard and Elizabeth Eslick Chair, Saint Louis University

I have been Leonard and Elizabeth Eslick Professor of Philosophy at Saint Louis University since 2024. I am concomitantly an Honorary Professor of Philosophy at Durham University, UK.  

I previously held the Chair of Metaphysics in the Philosophy Department of Durham University (2016-2024), after having spent a decade at the University of Oxford, affiliated with Corpus Christi College (2007-2017). At the Universities of Oxford and later Durham, I directed a large-scale multidisciplinary research group with successively staged funding from the European Research Council, the Templeton World Charity Foundation, the Leverhulme Trust, and the Art and Humanities Research Council. 

I have held visiting positions internationally, in Europe, the U.S., Mexico, and Australia. I am actively engaged in many international research projects, collaborations and networks, and have a wide range of editorial responsibilities, including being co-editor of the journal Ancient Philosophy Today: Dialogoi for Edinburgh University Press.
