Jules Vuillemin (/ˌvuːiˈmæn/; French: [vɥijmɛ̃]; 15 February 1920 – 16 January 2001) was a French philosopher, Professor of Philosophy of Knowledge at the prestigious Collège de France, in Paris, from 1962 to 1990, succeeding Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and Professor emeritus from 1991 to 2001.[2] He was an Invited Professor at the Institute for Advanced Study, in Princeton, New Jersey (1968).[3]
At the Collège de France, Vuillemin introduced analytical philosophy to France.[4] Vuillemin’s thought had a major influence on Jacques Bouveresse's works.[5] Vuillemin himself vindicated the legacy of Martial Gueroult.
A friend of Michel Foucault, he supported his election at the Collège de France, and was also close to Michel Serres.
