Philippe Lacour is Adjunct Professor at the Philosophy Department of the Federal University of Brasilia (Brasil). He teaches theoretical philosophy (epistemology, theory of knowledge, philosophy of sciences), with a specialization in philosophy of Social Sciences and French contemporary philosophy. He also is a Program Director at the College International de Philosophie (Paris). His work investigates the notion of “clinical knowledge,” as an original, interpretive, comparative knowledge of singularities. He published a book on the epistemology of Gilles-Gaston Granger, La nostalgie de l’individuel (Paris: Vrin, 2012), and another on Jean-Claude Passeron’s work, La raison au singulier (Paris: Presses Universitaires de Nanterre, 2020). He has also been leading the TraduXio project (https://traduxio.org), a digital environment for participative translation, and has published several articles about it, including, in collaboration with Renée Desjardin and Claire Larsonneur: When Translation Goes Digital (London: Palgrave, 2020).
