Charles Dacre Parsons (1933-2024)

The Philosophy Department mourns the passing of our beloved former colleague Charles Dacre Parsons, who retired from his teaching position in 2005. Professor Parsons' scholarship spanned the philosophy of mathematics, Kant, and post-Kantian philosophy in the phenomenological tradition. His engagement with the research topics of his colleagues and students in the department were broader still. We will all miss his steady presence and deep insight. A fuller account of his life will be published in the form of a memorial minute.
