Biography

Marcus Hunt’s interest in philosophy grew out of an interest in religion. The two have circled around each other with admiration and suspicion ever since. Hunt writes mainly about the philosophy of the family, of religion, and of the emotions, the overlap being the piety that we owe to the causes of our being.
