Dr. Gorman teaches courses on ancient, medieval, and modern thinkers.  Professor Gorman is also the author of six books and numerous articles dealing with what scholars often label "Critical Theory."  This work encompasses a wide range of topics, including phenomenology, hermeneutics, methodology, structuralism, Marxism, democratic socialism, modernism, and post-modernism.  These somewhat abstract theories can powerfully impact our everyday lives. Professor Gorman is interested in how philosophy informs humanity’s timeless search for justice.  He hopes that his published work and his teaching will inspire others to join the quest.
