Biography

Tim joined the Department of Politics and International Relations in September 2017, as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow on the Leverhulme Trust-funded project Rethinking Civil Society: History, Theory, Critique. Tim’s research and teaching focuses on early modern European intellectual history, and the history of political thought.

Tim completed his doctorate at the University of Oxford in 2013. His thesis explored the importance of the late Hellenistic philosophical traditions, and especially a variety of academic scepticism identified closely with Cicero, to the development of British moral, religious and political thought from Locke to Hume. (A revised version of the thesis will be published as a monograph by Oxford University Press in early 2018.) From 2014-17 he was a postdoctoral Research Associate on the European Research Council-funded interdisciplinary project, Crossroads of Knowledge in Early Modern England: The Place of Literature, at the University of Cambridge. He is a Fellow of Clare Hall, Cambridge.
