Stewart Shapiro

Dr. Stewart Shapiro is a Professor in the Department of Philosophy at Ohio State University's College of Arts and Sciences. He holds a B.A. from Case Western Reserve University and a Ph.D. from SUNY Buffalo. His expertise spans philosophical logic, vagueness, philosophy of mathematics, and philosophy of language.

His research explores the foundations of mathematics, logic, and language, with significant contributions to understanding mathematical ontology, pluralism in logic, and the semantics of mathematical concepts. He investigates structuralism, formalism, and the epistemic access to abstract objects.

Recent publications examine logical pluralism, the interplay between ontology and semantics, and the revision of inconsistent conceptual frameworks. His work frequently engages with historical figures like Frege, Aristotle, and Brouwer while addressing contemporary debates in formal epistemology and mathematical philosophy.
