Colin Heydt

Colin Heydt is an American philosopher and professor of philosophy at the University of South Florida. His research focuses on eighteenth-century moral and political philosophy, particularly the ethical and cultural thought of David Hume and Adam Smith.

Heydt is the author of Rethinking Mill’s Ethics (2006) and Moral Philosophy in Eighteenth‑Century Britain (2018), as well as the editor of John Mill Stuart's Utilitarianism (2010). Rethinking Mill’s Ethics (2006) has been described as “a rich and original contextual study of John Stuart Mill’s political philosophy, ethics and moral psychology.” Moral Philosophy in Eighteenth‑Century Britain (2018) has been called “an immensely valuable contribution to our understanding” of British moral philosophy in the eighteenth century.
