Teresa Marques is a philosopher of language, but has interests in metaethics, epistemology, and feminist and social philosophy. In recent years, she has been working on disagreement and retraction, conceptual engineering, evaluative language, and the expression of emotions in language. For instance, she has worked on slurs, misogyny, hate speech, propaganda, and other aspects of the interaction between language and social reality.

She was awarded an ICREA Acadèmia award in 2022, and was elected as a member of the Academia Europaea in 2024. 

Teresa edited Shifting Concepts: The Philosophy and Psychology of Conceptual Variability with Åsa Wikforss for Oxford University Press (2020) and Collective Action, Philosophy and Law with Chiara Valentini for Routledge (2021). Her work has appeared in journals like The Philosophical Quarterly, Philosophical Studies, Erkenntnis, Synthese, Australasian Journal of Philosophy, Journal of Applied Philosophy, Thought, Inquiry, Ratio, Philosophia, or Metaphilosophy.

Previously, Teresa was the PI of the project CONCEDIS, on conceptual variability and value dispositionalism (2017-2019), and a Marie Curie Research Fellow with the Law & Philosophy research group of the University Pompeu Fabra, with a project on collective attitudes and normative disagreement funded under FP7 of the European Commission (2014-2017), and PI of a EUROCORES project of the ESF. She also held other appointments at the Universities of Lisbon and of Maryland (Europe Campus).

Teresa is the coordinator of the APhil Master programme. She is co-PI (with Manuel García-Carpintero) of the project The Philosophy of Hybrid Representations. This project finishes in 2024. Teresa and Manuel are the PIs of a new project that continues this research line, New Paths in the Philosophy of Hybrid Representations. The project will fund one PhD grant.

Teresa is currently subject area editor of philosophy of language at the open access journal Thought.
