CURRICULUM

Cesare Cozzo studied philosophy at the University of Rome "La Sapienza" as an undergraduate. In 1987 he began graduate studies at the University of Florence and in 1992 he completed his first PhD thesis “Teoria del significato e filosofia della logica” (later published by the publishing house Clueb of Bologna) with Professors Carlo Cellucci, Marisa Dalla Chiara and Paolo Parrini as supervisors. In 1995 Cozzo received a second doctorate in theoretical philosophy at the University of Stockholm with Professor Dag Prawitz as supervisor. The Swedish dissertation “Meaning and Argument” (Almqvist & Wiksell, Stockholm, 1994) presents a theory of meaning centred on the notion of "immediate argumental role". From 1998 to 2001, Cesare Cozzo was research fellow, from 2001 to 2020 associate professor and in 2020 he became full professor at the University of Rome "La Sapienza". His research has been mainly focused on the relations between the philosophy of logic and mathematics and the theory of meaning. He wrote a book on the philosophy of Michael Dummett, “Introduzione a Dummett” (Laterza 2008), and several articles on analytic philosophy, the paradox of knowability, the epistemic conception of truth, holism, inferential compulsion, which appeared in Erkenntnis, Rivista di filosofia, Theoria, Topoi and other journals or collections of essays.
