Welcome to Wondering Freely

Welcome to my Substack newsletter. I am a philosopher living and working in the US (Saint Louis Missouri), but originally from Belgium. I am author of several papers and books, most recently Wonderstruck (Princeton University Press). You can subscribe for free to receive irregular pieces (I think I average about once a week but it varies) on topics that interest me, notably philosophy, art, music, literature, early modern science.
