Keith Frankish

Find our Sentientism Conversation on the Sentientism YouTube here and the Sentientism Podcast here.

Keith Frankish is a philosopher and writer, British-born but now living in Crete, Greece. He is an Honorary Professor in the Philosophy Department at the University of Sheffield, UK, a Visiting Research Fellow with The Open University, UK, and an Adjunct Professor with the Brain and Mind Programme at the University of Crete. He is also editor of the Cambridge University Press series Elements in Philosophy of Mind. He spent many years thinking about the nature of belief and reasoning, developing a ‘two-level’ view of the human mind that he set out in his 2004 book, Mind and Supermind. Now he focuses mostly on Philosophy of Mind and says “I now spend much of my time defending the unpalatable but salutary view that phenomenal consciousness is an introspective illusion.”

Keith agrees with a sentiocentric moral scope in theory but is still working on putting it into practice. He has a naturalistic worldview.
