I am Daniel Vanello. I am currently Lecturer in Philosophy (1 year) at the University of Southampton. I am interested in questions at the intersection of the philosophy of mind, ethics and epistemology, specifically in the role of emotions and autobiographical memory in moral development.
I completed my B.A. in Philosophy at Trinity College Dublin and both my MPhil and PhD in Philosophy here at Warwick. Before coming to Southampton, I was Leverhulme Early Career Research Fellow in the Philosophy Department at the University of Warwick (2020-2023). Before that, I was Government of Ireland Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the School of Philosophy at University College Dublin (2018-2020) and Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Fribourg and at the Affective Sciences Research Centre in Geneva, Switzerland (2017-2018).
In the picture you can see my hometown of Trieste. Although Trieste is at present in Italy, it has changed borders many times in its history. Like many in Trieste, I am half Italian and half Slovenian. This has undoubtedly led me to be very interested in questions about identity and how we should understand the role of values and attachments in our self-understanding.
