About

Dylan Trigg is a CNRS/Volkswagen Stiftung post-doctoral researcher at The Centre de Recherche en Épistémologie Appliquée, Paris.

He previously taught philosophy at the University of Sussex. He earned his PhD at the same university, submitting a thesis on the materiality of memory. His thesis was supervised by Tanja Staehler and Paul Davies, and examined by Edward S. Casey (Stony Brook) and Celine Surpenant (University of Sussex). He has been a visiting scholar at Duquesne University, USA and a guest lecturer at the University of Montana, USA.

He has published on space and place, continental philosophy, and aesthetics.

His interests includes: the phenomenology of place (in particular spatial phobias, memory and materiality, and the aesthetics of urban ruins); phenomenology (in particular Bachelard, Levinas, Husserl, Merleau-Ponty, and Heidegger); and various aspects of embodied existence (body memory, body horror, anxiety, embodied intentionality, eroticism, sexuality, disease).

In addition to many articles, Trigg is the author of two books:

The Memory of Place: a Phenomenology of the Uncanny (Athens: Ohio University Press, 2012)

The Aesthetics of Decay: Nothingness, Nostalgia and the Absence of Reason (New York: Peter Lang, 2006)
