Tzachi Zamir (born February 13, 1967[1]) is an Israeli philosopher and literary critic specialising in the philosophy of literature, the philosophy of theatre, and animal ethics. He is Professor of English and General & Comparative Literature at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

Academic career

Zamir studied at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and Tel-Aviv University, going on to be a Rothschild and Fulbright postdoctoral fellow in philosophy at The University of Chicago. He joined the English department of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 2004 as a lecturer, and is now Professor of English and General & Comparative Literature.[2]

Zamir is the author of the 2006 book Double Vision: Moral Philosophy and Shakespearean Drama[3][4] and the 2007 book Ethics & the Beast: A Speciesist Argument for Animal Liberation,[5][6][7] both published by Princeton University Press. His 2014 book Acts: Theater, Philosophy, and the Performing Self was published by the University of Michigan Press.[8][9][10] In 2018, he published both the monograph Ascent: Philosophy and Paradise Lost[11][12][13] and the edited collection Shakespeare's Hamlet: Philosophical Perspectives with Oxford University Press,[14] and in 2020 he published Just Literature: Philosophical Criticism and Justice with Routledge.[15]

While most contemporary scholars involved with animal ethics have written in favour of veganism, Zamir however has defended vegetarianism.[6][16][17]
