The record lists Vittorio Hösle as German philosopher.

His academic posts were held at University of Tübingen, University of Duisburg-Essen and University of Notre Dame.
Philosophical influence is measured in the questions a thinker made unavoidable.
The honours record reads: Fritz Winter Prize (1994).
That the work was done from Germany matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
Vittorio Hösle is still working, and the final assessment of the contribution has not been made.
