Reza Hadisi: Tusi on Perfectionism and Virtue
Hadisi works on questions in ethics, epistemology, and action theory through the study of the history of philosophy. They are particularly interested in medieval Arabic and Persian philosophy, and Kant and have worked extensively on Kant's conception of epistemic norms and normativity. Currently, they're working on a large project about theories of imagination as the source of moral knowledge and virtue by drawing from the writings of al-Ghazālī, Suhrawardī, and Tūsī.
