Dr. ELI DIAMOND research interests include I am currently working on a SSHRC-funded project entitled “Political Ontology and Ontological Politics: Metaphysics and Politics in Ancient Greek Philosophy.” In this project, I am attempting to show, through a careful juxtaposed reading of key political and metaphysical texts, how virtually every political position taken by Plato and Aristotle is intimately connected to their metaphysics. I am also investigating the degree to which pre-Platonic philosophy, poetry, and drama anticipate this feature of Platonic and Aristotelian philosophy, by connecting cosmic or divine causality with human political life. Through this project I hope to shed light on what is the direction of the causality of this connection between metaphysics and politics in ancient political thought.
