I'm an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Oxford, and a Tutorial Fellow of Exeter College. Email me at: rachel [dot] fraser [at] philosophy.ox.ac.uk.

My main philosophical interests are in epistemology, philosophy of language, social and political philosophy, feminism, and aesthetics. I'm particularly interested in questions about the epistemology and politics of `aesthetically rich' representations like metaphors and narratives. In 2021, I won the Marc Sanders prize in epistemology for my paper on dogmatism.

In 2022, I took up a three year British Academy Wolfson Fellowship; I'm using that time to write a book about the epistemology and politics of narrative; you can read my book proposal here. Other works in progress include a paper on promising, a paper on open-mindedness, and a paper on specifically aesthetic forms of injustice. I also write for non-specialist audiences at places like The Times Literary Supplement, The Point, and The Boston Review.
