Elizabeth Anscombe on Causality

My research focuses on describing an Anscombean view of causality which emphasizes the centrality of the concept of process. I aim to explain how this links to her claims that causality is directly observable and that effects derive from their causes.

My previous PhD in Philosophy was on the topic of belief ascription and direct reference. These are topics in the Philosophy of Language which I am still very interested in.
