Frédéric Seyler, Assistant Professor
Ph.D. Université Paul Verlaine de Metz (France)

Frederic received his Ph.D. at the Université Paul Verlaine de Metz (France) and studied at the Université Catholique de Louvain and the Université Libre de Bruxelles (both Belgium). Before coming to DePaul he taught at the Johannes-Gutenberg Universität Mainz (Germany), the University of Luxemburg and the Université Paul Verlaine de Metz. Within his areas of specialization (phenomenology and German idealism), his research focuses on the concepts of affectivity, life and existence, especially in Michel Henry’s radical phenomenology and Fichte’s Doctrine of Religion and Wissenschaftslehre 1804. He is the author of Barbarie ou Culture: L’éthique de l’affectivité dans la phénomenologie de Michel Henry (Paris: Kimé 2010) and Eine Ethik der Affektivität: Die Lebensphänomenologie Michel Henrys (Freiburg i.
