Feng is a Ph.D. student in the EHTS track, with a particular interest in the intellectual and social history of attention during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in Western Europe. His current research explores attention as a contested epistemological terrain on which naturalists, philosophers, psychologists, and physicians debated the nature of the mind and the knowledge of the self. It also situates attention within a complex network in which changing sensory experiences, emerging paradigms of science and medicine, and evolving social norms intricately intertwine.
