Madelaine Angelova-Elchinova

Bulgaria

Madelaine Angelova-Elchinova (https://elchinova.weebly.com/) is an Assistant Professor at Sofia University`s Department of Philosophy (2021). Since 2023, she is also the President of the Bulgarian Society for Analytic Philosophy (BSAP). Since 2023, she is the Technical Editor of Balkan Journal of Philosophy and she serves on the Editorial Board of the Department of Philosophy`s Yearbook. She has a PhD from Sofia University on „Theory of Knowledge in XX Bulgarian Philosophy“ (2020). Her research interests are in epistemology, philosophy of perception and metaphilosophy. She currently works on analysing the relations between perception and belief, hoping to build an argument favouring direct realism about perception and defending a novel account of naturalised beliefs.
