This does not prevent him from being a specialist in Greek philosophy, which has renewed our reading of Plato and the Stoics.
His work is based on a broad multidisciplinary approach, at the crossroads of philosophy, the history of ideas, history, archeology, geography, the history of art, and religious sciences. He thinks of philosophy as a global grasp of reality, while integrating the long term, in the tradition of French historiography.

Jean-Joël Duhot – Université Jean moulin Lyon 3 & IRPHIL (Institute of Philosophical Research of Lyon)

Doctor of State in Philosophy, Associate of Letters and Philosophy, Jean-Joël Duhot is professor-researcher emeritus at the University of Lyon.

Philosopher, Hellenist, and musician, he has worked for half a century on the foundations of rationality, in a search for historical epistemology. He notably brought to light the central place which, since Pythagoras, the theory of music has occupied in the constitution of scientific reason.

Throughout his articles and books, some of which are translated into several languages, he develops an in-depth analysis that rethinks the whole construction of our modernity.

This does not prevent him from being a specialist in Greek philosophy, which has renewed our reading of Plato and the Stoics.

His work is based on a broad multidisciplinary approach, at the crossroads of philosophy, the history of ideas, history, archeology, geography, the history of art, and religious sciences. He thinks of philosophy as a global grasp of reality, while integrating the long term, in the tradition of French historiography.
