Philosopher Ricketts from Northwestern to Pittsburgh

Thomas Ricketts, one of the leading writers on the history of analytic philosophy, who moved from Penn to Northwestern just a few years ago, has now accepted a senior offer from the University of Pittsburgh, where he will join a number of other philosophers working on major figures in the analytic tradition (from Frege to Wittgenstein), including Bob Brandom, John McDowell, and Mark Wilson, among others.
