Viktor Ilievski is a historian of philosophy affiliated with the Institute for Research in Humanities (IRH-ICUB) at the University of Bucharest. He holds a PhD from the Central European University, Budapest (2015) and specializes in Ancient Greek philosophy with particular expertise in Plato and Platonism.
His research interests focus on Plato's theodicy and theories of the origin of evil, having evolved from earlier work on Plato's stance regarding the connection between language and knowledge. Ilievski also engages with Eastern philosophical traditions, examining fundamental texts of Hindu philosophy including the Bhāgavad-gītā and the Vedānta-sūtra.
His recent scholarly output demonstrates significant contributions to Platonic studies, particularly through analyses of the Myth of Er in the Republic and theodicy in the Timaeus. His 2017-2018 research project "Free Agency and Causation in Plato" explored complex philosophical questions regarding moral responsibility, divine intervention, and the causal powers of Platonic Forms.
His publications have appeared in respected philosophy journals including Apeiron and Rhizomata, reflecting his standing within the academic community specializing in ancient philosophy.
