UNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL AUTÓNOMA DE MÉXICO INSTITUTO DE INVESTIGACIONES FILOSÓFICAS

Mi investigación se centra en las disputas en la interfaz semántica-pragmática, incluidos los usos no literales y figurativos del lenguaje (por ejemplo, chistes, discurso indirecto, metáfora y metonimia) y la representación conceptual. Mis intereses de investigación más amplios incluyen la filosofía de la mente, la filosofía de Paul Ricœur, la hermenéutica y la historia de la filosofía. 

My research focuses on theoretical and empirical disputes at the semantics-pragmatics interface, including non-literal and figurative uses of language (e.g., indirect speech, metaphor, and metonymy) and conceptual representation. My broader research interests include the philosophy of mind, the philosophy of Paul Ricœur, hermeneutics, and the history of philosophy.
