Deepa Majumdar
A retired professor of philosophy at Purdue University Northwest, USA, Deepa Majumdar focuses on the Enneads of Plotinus and Indian Advaita Vedānta – in general, comparative theology. But she has research and creative interests in topics as varied as technology, anti-racism, and Gandhian thought. The range of her published paper titles manifests this variety – from “Puppeteer Putin” to “Quietude in Plato and Plotinus.” Her published works include a book, titled, Plotinus on the Appearance of Time and the World of Sense: A Pantomime, an anthology of philosophical poetry, titled, Song of the Solipsistic One, plus papers in peer-reviewed international and national journals. She has published on Plotinus, Plato, Gandhi, and comparative theology (Plotinus’ Enneads and Advaita Vedānta, especially Bhagavadgītā). She has also published essays on topics as varied as the Covid-19 pandemic, war, and technology. She has published book reviews in peer-reviewed journals (Ancient Philosophy, The Classical Review, and The International Journal of the Platonic Tradition). Her works-in-progress include an essay on the crisis of the modern self, and a book titled, Plotinus’ Enneads and Advaita Vedānta. Finally, she has a book project on the nature and ethos of revolution.
