About

I studied literature and philosophy ("Amirim") at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and first literature and then philosophical theology in Oxford. After spending two years as a post-doc in Berlin, I now teach theology at St John's College, Oxford.

My main research interest is an ongoing enquiry into the ontological, epistemological and anthropological implications of Christian eschatology. So far, this has yielded two strands of published research. The first are theological interactions with the philosophical traditions of Heidegger and Wittgenstein (including particularly Stanley Cavell); the second are engagements with literary expressions of eschatological expectation, particularly the late plays of Shakespeare and the novels of C.S. Lewis.
