Plus ça change...

With a background in pure mathematics, I did a PhD in philosophy at University of Toronto. My dissertation, written under the supervision of Anjan Chakravartty, is on the metaphysics of modalities. From September 2008 till March 2013 I held an academic position somewhere.

To make a living, I have to work (alas). Among other things, I have translated a number of books from English into Persian, including Locke’s Essay, Hume’s first Enquiry, and Saul Kripke’s Naming and Necessity.

In recent years, I have published papers in Analysis, Philosophy (the British journal), and Wittgenstein-Studien. A list of my research papers is available at PhilPapers.

I live in downtown Tehran, Iran. In my leisure time, I read (very selectively) papers in ethics and flirt with certain logical issues.
