Conor Bulkeley-Krane studied philosophy and German at the University of Chicago, culminating in an undergraduate thesis examining Nietzsche and Thomas Mann’s differing interpretations of Euripides’ The Bacchae, supervised by David Wellbery. Conor then spent two years in Vienna pursuing a Fulbright research project based at the Sigmund Freud Museum, exploring Wittgenstein’s interactions with Freud. Conor’s research focuses on the intertwining of aesthetics, ontology, literature, and philosophy of language from the Age of Goethe to Nietzsche, with an emphasis on German reception of Sanskrit literature and philosophy.
