Biography<br/>Will Buckingham is a novelist, philosopher and children's writer. He was brought up in Norfolk, England, and went on to study Fine Arts, Anthropology and Philosophy, taking a PhD in continental philosophy.<br/><br/>His work cuts between story-like philosophy and philosophically-inclined storytelling. He has particular interests in how the philosophies that we weave may shape and reshape the way we go about our lives. His philosophical interests are broad -- from recent Continental philosophy, to the philosophical traditions of Buddhism and of China. In terms of fiction, he is interested in stories that might suggest new possibilities for how we might see the world, or think about the world, or relate to each other.<br/><br/>Will has taught both creative writing and philosophy in a wide range of contexts. He is currently Reader in Writing and Creativity at De Montfort University, Leicester.<br/> |
