Education and career

Tague was born in 1957 at Bay Ridge Hospital, Brooklyn. He attended Catholic schools and then St. Francis Preparatory School. He went on to study at Queens College, CUNY; initially earth and environmental science, but then English and American literature. He transferred to Brooklyn College due to the commute, graduating in 1979. He worked full-time in corporate law while at Brooklyn, and continued to work alongside his studies while he read for a Master of Arts at Hunter College, CUNY (graduating 1990); an MPhil at New York University (graduating 1996); and a PhD at New York University. His dissertation was supervised by Frederick R. Karl; [1] [2] it was called The process of the recovery of self in D. H. Lawrence, and accepted in 1998.

During his studies, Tague was an adjunct professor at St. Francis College. He was later hired as a tenure track professor at St. Francis, [1] retiring in 2023 [3] as a full professor in the Department of Literature, Writing and Publishing and the Interdisciplinary Studies program. [2] Throughout his career, Tague's research has concerned moral character, consciousness, and moral behavior. He initially focussed on the English novel, bringing together literary studies and philosophy, but subsequently started to draw upon the biological sciences, including evolutionary biology. In his later career, his work moved towards animal ethics and environmental ethics. [1]
