Rosen from Oxford to Harvard Gov’t Dept

Michael Rosen, one of the leading writers on 19th- and 20th-century Continental philosophy (especially political philosophy) and who is presently Fellow of Lincoln College, Oxford University, has accepted a senior offer from the Department of Government at Harvard University, to start in the fall.  That’s a major loss for Continental philosophy at Oxford. 

The Harvard Gazette profile is here (though it wrongly says he is editing The Oxford Handbook of Continental Philosophy—co-editing, ahem, with a fellow in Austin who brought him on board!  Seriously, though, nobody has a deeper or more philosophical knowledge of the full sweep of post-Kantian German and French philosophy than Michael Rosen).
