Robert Stern was Professor of Philosophy at the University of Sheffield until ill health forced him to retire in 2023. He is best known for his work on two figures who had previously been outsiders in the analytic tradition in which he himself was educated and with which he remained associated throughout his career: Hegel, who had been largely disparaged within the tradition; and Løgstrup, who had been virtually unknown within it. Stern helped to re-establish the former and to establish the latter as esteemed members of the canon acknowledged by analytic philosophers.
