Robert Sokolowski

Monsignor Robert Sokolowski (born 3 May 1934) is a philosopher and Roman Catholic priest who serves as the Elizabeth Breckenridge Caldwell Professor of Philosophy at The Catholic University of America.

Sokolowski's philosophical research is focused primarily on the discipline of phenomenology and interrelated sub-disciplines, though he has also written works from a theological perspective. He is known for his interpretation of Husserl, commonly known as "East-Coast Husserlianism" in academic circles.[1] His Introduction to Phenomenology has been translated into seven other languages.[2][self-published source]

Sokolowski has throughout his career maintained that philosophy begins with good distinctions.[3][4]
