Timothy Morton (born 1968 in London, England) is Professor of Literature and the Environment at the University of California, Davis. A member of the object-oriented philosophy movement, Morton's work explores the intersection of object-oriented thought and ecological studies. He coined the term 'hyperobjects', in 2010, to explain objects so massively distributed in time and space as to transcend localization, such as climate change and styrofoam.

Morton has also written extensively about the literature of Percy Bysshe Shelley and Mary Shelley, Romanticism, diet studies, and ecotheory.

Morton received a B.A and D.Phil in English from Magdalen College, Oxford. His doctoral dissertation, "Re-Imagining the Body: Shelley and the Languages of Diet," studied the representation of diet, temperance, and consumption in the works of Percy Bysshe Shelley. According to Morton, the decision to study English literature, as opposed to more academically fashionable classics, stemmed from a desire to engage with modes of thought evolving internationally "including all kinds of continental philosophy that just wasn't happening much in England at the time, what with the war against 'theory' and all."
