Summary

American philosopher who wrote Nietzsche on Truth and Philosophy — arguing that Nietzsche ultimately abandoned his early perspectivism and arrived at a more conventional conception of truth in his mature works — making her a revisionary figure in Nietzsche scholarship.

Core Contribution

Argues against the standard reading of Nietzsche as a consistent perspectivist — the mature Nietzsche (BGE onward) takes truth more seriously than the youthful Nietzsche of 'On Truth and Lies' — providing the careful textual argument that divides Nietzsche scholars.
