About

I am an associate professor at the Department of Humanities and Literature, Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá, Colombia. My teaching and research interests concern classic and medieval works and authors from the Western (Latin) tradition. I’m an advocate of digital humanities as well.

I have a PhD (DPhil) on Philosophy from Balliol College, University of Oxford, where I wrote a theses on the logic and semantics of the 14th-century philosopher William of Ockham.

I’m also adjunct editor of, and technical adviser to, the Online Digital Edition of Wodeham’s Ordinatio, under the direction of Prof Jeffrey C. Witt.

I’m an enthusiast of the Python programming language, as well as of the document preparation system and markup language LaTeX. You may find much of my technical stuff at my GitHub page. I created this pages using the static site generator Jekyll, with a theme by S.V. Miller. Its source code is available here.

I exclusively use GNU/Linux OS on my machines. Currently I am happily on the Fedora Linux distribution with the KDE Plasma desktop. For many years I used the Manjaro Linux distribution, as well as (vanilla) Arch Linux, but found them pretty unstable and hard to use on a daily basis.

I mostly use GNU Emacs as my general editor (writing and coding), but frequently resort to Neovim, Visual Studio Code, PyCharm, and Oxygen XML Editor, depending on my needs.

As you can see I am an advocate of open source and open access software and publishing.
