Simon Critchley, born on February 27, 1960, is an English philosopher and the Hans Jonas Professor of Philosophy at the New School for Social Research in New York City. He challenges the traditional view that philosophy begins with wonder and admiration, asserting instead that it starts with disappointment. His work explores two forms of disappointment: religious, stemming from a lack of faith and questioning life's meaning amid nihilism, and political, arising from the violent world we inhabit and raising issues of justice in an unjust world. Critchley also engages with more experiential writings on Shakespeare, David Bowie, suicide, Greek tragedy, and football.
