welcome to Teresa's website
I was educated at the University of Lisbon, the University of St. Andrews and the University of Stirling. I specialize in philosophy of language and philosophical logic. I have published on the ambiguity of negation, bivalence and paradoxes, on singular reference and object-dependent thoughts, and on relativism and the difference between content and force/mode. I have been working further on various forms of relativism and the troubles disagreement poses for it.
I am a researcher at the Philosophy Centre of the University of Lisbon, with the LanCog research group. I am also co-editor of Disputatio, a member of the steering committee of the Portuguese Society for Analytic Philosophy, and the PI of the research project Contextualism, Relativism and Practical Disagreements and Conflict, which is part of the collaborative research project Communication in Context, under the Eurocores Scheme of the European Science Foundation.
On this site you can find my CV, a list of my publications (some for download), information on the research projects I'm involved in, and teaching materials for my courses. In the events section you find news and some discussion about recent or upcoming events.
