Monica Z. X. Ding

​

I am a PhD student at King’s College London. I received my B.A. and M.Phil degrees from the University of Hong Kong.

​

My research interests include epistemology, philosophy of language, and classical Chinese philosophy.

​

My PhD project is concerned with the nature of understanding, supervised by Dr. Julien Dutant and Prof Mattehw Soteriou. 

As for classical Chinese philosophy, I work on topics in epistemology, language, moral psychology, and aesthetics, with a specific focus on Xúnzǐ.

​

I also have a particular interest in linguistic research on Cantonese, and how it might contribute to current philosophical discussions.
