Angelika Krebs

German philosopher

Angelika Krebs is remembered for arguments the next generation could not ignore.

The record lists Angelika Krebs as German philosopher.

Angelika Krebs was born at Mannheim in 1961. Her recorded nationality is Germany.

Contemporary philosophy is professionalised and specialised, conducted largely in journals and seminars.

Her academic posts were held at University of Basel.

A philosophical position survives not by being proved but by resisting every attempt to dispose of it.

That the work was done from Germany matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.

Angelika Krebs is still working, and the final assessment of the contribution has not been made.
