Raja Rosenhagen is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at Ashoka University. He earned his Ph.D. in Philosophy in 2018 from the University of Pittsburgh. He also holds an M.A. from the University of Münster in Philosophy, Indian Studies, and Psychology. His interests are broad and include Philosophy of Mind (especially Perception), Metaphysics and Epistemology, Philosophy of Science, History of Philosophy, Logic, Philosophy of Love, Indian Philosophy (especially Bhakti and Jaina Philosophy), and Philosophical Counselling. Since his last name is too long and unusual, his students call him “Professor Raja.” Raja is convinced that experience can be shaped by background beliefs, values, and other cognitive and non-cognitive states and explores the implications this has for the role of experience both in theoretical and practical philosophy, but also in areas that go beyond philosophy and in which experience is credited with an important role. He is currently working on various papers as well as on a book that ties together pretty much all his interests through the lens of Iris Murdoch’s work.
