Scholarly Work
Robert Greenleaf Brice publishes on topics in epistemology and philosophy of language. His focus is primarily on the ideas of Austrian philosopher, Ludwig Wittgenstein. His first book considered Wittgenstein's notion of certainty in different disciplines and areas of thought. (See his book, Exploring Certainty: Wittgenstein & Wide Fields of Thought.) Additionally, Brice has researched how Wittgenstein's method in On Certainty relates to the psychotherapeutic theory known as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). (See his book, Wittgenstein's On Certainty: Insight & Method.) Brice is currently working on a third book that considers the climate crisis by employing tools from Wittgenstein’s philosophy.
