Gareth Evans (; 12 May 1946 – 10 August 1980) was a British philosopher. ==Life== Gareth Evans was born in London on 12 May 1946. He was educated at Dulwich College and University College, Oxford (1964–67) where he read Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE). His philosophy tutor was Peter Strawson, one of the most eminent Oxford philosophers of the time. Evans became close friends with philosopher Derek Parfit and other prominent members of his academic field such as Christopher Peacocke and Crispin Wright. He was a senior scholar at Christ Church, Oxford (1967–68) and a Kennedy Scholar at Harvard University and University of California, Berkeley (1968–69). He died in Oxford in 1980 of lung cancer at the age of 34. His collected papers (1985) and a book, ''The Varieties of Reference'' (1982), edited by John McDowell, were published posthumously. The ''Oxford Companion to Philosophy'' writes "Evans's untimely death was a great loss for British philosophy". In the acknowledgements of his ''Reasons and Persons'' (Oxford University Press, 1984), Derek Parfit writes 'I owe much to the intensity of his love of truth, and his extraordinary vitality.'
