Nina Karin Monsen

Norwegian philosopher

Nina Karin Monsen wrote at a period when the questions philosophy asked were themselves being renegotiated.

The record lists Nina Karin Monsen as Norwegian philosopher.

Nina Karin Monsen was born at Bergen in 1943. Her recorded nationality is Norway.

Twentieth-century philosophy was marked by war, exile and ideology; many of its central figures wrote in flight or under censorship.

Her academic posts were held at University of Oslo.

Philosophical influence is measured in the questions a thinker made unavoidable.

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