Jack Morgan Jones

Jack Morgan Jones is a Research Fellow at Trinity College Dublin's School of Social Sciences, Department of Philosophy. His research focuses on narrativism in the philosophy of history, advocating that narrative explanations are central to professional historical practice. Funded by the School of Social Sciences PhD Studentship, he holds a PhD in Philosophy and previously earned a Master of Philosophy from Trinity College Dublin and a Bachelor of Arts in History from the University of Exeter.

His key research areas include subject-naturalist approaches to history, Quinean and Millikanian naturalism, and the cognitive tools produced by historians. Jones critiques antiessentialist perspectives through works like his upcoming article in Think, which explores philosophical thought experiments about identity and personhood.

He co-organized the Open Minds XVII conference (Dec 2023 - Sept 2024), demonstrating engagement with academic community-building. His work bridges philosophy of history with meta-philosophical questions about narrative structure and cognitive utility.
