Michael Blome-Tillmann earned a BPhil (2003) and DPhil (2007) in Philosophy from the University of Oxford. Before joining the McGill faculty in 2009 he was the Stevenson Junior Research Fellow in the Arts at University College, Oxford. His primary areas of research lie in epistemology, the philosophy of language, and especially their intersection (the semantics of knowledge attributions). He has published papers on scepticism, on epistemic contextualism and conversational implicatures, and on the linguistic basis of ethical non-cognitivism.
He enjoys discussing a wide variety of philosophical topics.
Some papers he has written:
- Knowledge and Presuppositions in: Mind 118/470 (2009), pp. 241-294.
- Non-Cognitivism and the Grammar of Morality in: Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society 109/1 (2009), pp. 279-309.
- The Indexicality of 'Knowledge' in: Philosophical Studies 138/1 (2008), pp. 29-53.
