Paul Standish has extensive experience as a teacher in schools, colleges and universities, and his research reflects that range. His work spans a range of philosophical traditions, with a particular interest in questions of language and meaning as these bear on education, democracy, and human transformation.

Dr. Thomas Zingelmann received his doctorate in 2022 with the thesis “Die Ausstellung. Ästhetik und Epistemologie des Zeigens” at the Friedrich Schiller University Jena, where he has been a postdoc at the Chair of Image Theory & Phenomenology of the Institute of Philosophy at the Friedrich Schiller University Jena since 2023.
