Mark Webb's Homepage
Or, if you prefer, Mark Webb as Puck in A Midsummer Night's Dream:
(That's
Eva Dadlez
of the University of Central Oklahoma, as Oberon, on the right).
Or,
perhaps, Mark
Webb posing with his patroness, the (ironically headless) goddess Epistêmê,
in Ephesus.
Professor Webb received both his B.A. in
philosophy and his two M.A. degrees, one in philosophy and the other in
Classical Humanities, from Texas Tech
and Ph.D. in Philosophy from Syracuse
University in 1991. He specializes in epistemology and philosophy of
religion. He is currently working on the epistemology of religious experience,
especially in non-Western religions. Mark Webb's CV (in
pdf) is available online.
Professor Webb is also faculty advisor for the Double T fencing club.
