My research mainly focuses on Plato and Aristotle’s moral psychology and ethics. I am particularly interested in understanding how their conceptions of anticipatory pleasure and anticipatory pain inform their views on desire, emotion, and virtue. I also attempt to trace the extent to which Aristotle engages with, and departs from, Plato on these issues.
