Forskning

Kristin Sampson, dr. art., is Professor of Philosophy at the Department of Philosophy at the University of Bergen. She wrote her doctoral dissertation on Plato, Ontogony. Conceptions of Being and Metaphors of Birth in the Timaeus and the Parmenides (2006), with a focus on the relation between the poetical and the philosophical. Her academic work beyond the doctorate dissertation has proceeded along three various main lines: Firstly, on other parts of the Platonic textual corpus (Symposium, Sophist, Protagoras, Apology, Republic and Laws); secondly, on ancient Greek thinking previous to Plato, going back to Homer and Hesiod; and thirdly within feminist and contemporary philosophy with a special attention to the thinking of Luce Irigaray.

Having received a post-doctorate fellowship (2007) Sampson worked on the project The Freedom of the Other. Ethical Consequences of Irigaray’s Conception of Sexual Difference, investigating possible alternative conceptions of freedom from within an ontological-ethical perspective as articulated by Luce Irigaray. This project was also part of the larger research project Thought as Action (2008-2012) funded by the Norwegian Research Council.

Sampson was a Visiting Scholar at the Department of Philosophy at Boston University (USA) in 2002, having been granted the Fulbright Fellowship the Einar Haugen Fellowship in the Humanitiesfor the academic year 2001/2002. In 2008 Sampson was a Visiting Professor at Rutgers University (USA), and in 2010 at the Fondation Maison des Sciences de l'Homme in Paris (France). 

Sampson is part of the research group on Ancient Philosophy (at the Department of Philosophy), which for several years worked on the research project Poetry and Philosophy, focusing on Plato. This project was funded by the Norwegian Research Council (2010-2015). The Ancient Philosophy research group is currently working on a project on politics and philosophy in Ancient Greece. Sampson is also a member of the research group on Subjectivation and Late Modernity at the University of Bergen.
