Susanne Bobzien

From 2013 to 2023, she was Professor of Philosophy and Senior Research Fellow at All Souls College, Oxford, before retiring in 2023.

[3] Among her awards are a British Academy Research Readership (2000–2002),[5] and a fellowship of the National Endowment for the Humanities (2008–09).

[8] Bobzien has published several books and numerous articles in leading academic journals and collections.

[9] "It explores ... the views of the Stoics on causality, fate, the modalities, divination, rational agency, the non-futility of action, moral responsibility, [and the] formation of character".

[21] In the 2021 extended essay "Frege plagiarized the Stoics", based on her 2016 Keeling Lecture, Bobzien argues in detail that Frege plagiarized them on a large scale in his work on the philosophy of logic and language, written mainly between 1890 and his death in 1925.

She has introduced and developed the philosophical ideas of columnar higher-order vagueness, borderline nestings, and semi-determinability.

[27] Bobzien has proposed a logic of higher-order vagueness (the quantified modal logic S4.1 supplemented with Max Cresswell's Finality Axiom) that delivers a generic solution to the Sorites paradox and avoids higher-order vagueness paradoxes and sharp boundaries.
