My name is John Joseph Nolan. I hold a BA in Philosophy, Ethics and Religion from King's College London and I am currently undertaking an MA in Philosophy at Birkbeck. This website will be a space to archive a variety of matters important to me. This space will hold a range of writings, from more informal entries inspired by what I am reading, general thoughts, and formal papers. The growing collection of writing on this page should express how knowledge and thoughts are not fixed; they can change and grow as one learns, and one is always learning. Hopefully, this page can also inspire others to explore philosophy.

"I don't wish to learn to change my hopes for the world. I'm prepared to change my beliefs [...] but not about what I hope."
- Bertrand Russell
