P. F. Strawson

Sir Peter Frederick Strawson (; 23 November 1919 – 13 February 2006) was an English philosopher who spent most of his career at the University of Oxford. He was the Waynflete Professor of Metaphysical Philosophy at Magdalen College, Oxford from 1968 to 1987. He had previously held the positions of college lecturer and tutorial fellow at University College, Oxford, a college he returned to upon his retirement in 1987, and which provided him with rooms until his death.

Paul Snowdon and Anil Gomes, in the ''Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy'', comment that Strawson "exerted a considerable influence on philosophy, both during his lifetime and, indeed, since his death." Provided by Wikipedia
