Andreas Blank serves as Associate Professor in the Department of Practical Philosophy within the Faculty of Arts and Humanities at Paderborn University, Germany. His office is located at Pohlweg 55, Room N2.316, 33098 Paderborn, with contact email andreas.blank@uni-paderborn.de and office hours by mail appointment.
His research spans Early Modern Philosophy, Medieval and Renaissance Philosophy, and History of Analytic Philosophy, with concentrated expertise in moral philosophy, intellectual history, and theological intersections. Key investigations include Renaissance natural philosophy (e.g., Cesalpino), early modern moralists (La Rochefoucauld, French/British traditions), and legal humanism (Marquard Freher), demonstrating recurring engagement with selfhood, divine immanence, and ethical frameworks across historical contexts.
Recent publications (2022-2023) reveal consistent thematic focus on early modern moral and metaphysical thought, particularly comparative analyses of esteem concepts, sensitive powers in Aristotelian frameworks, and legal-philosophical presumptions of goodness. His work bridges continental and analytic traditions while emphasizing historical contextualization of philosophical problems in Renaissance and Enlightenment eras.
