A House Divided: Comparing Analytic and Continental Philosophy

Featured Bookstore

Book Description: A HOUSE DIVIDED examines cross-influences and similarities between pivotal thinkers in the analytic and Continental philosophical traditions. The various articles in this anthology establish that the two traditions have more in common than most think. Consideration of apparently unlikely but definite connections between Carnap and Nietzsche, Davidson and Gadamer, Quine and Heidegger, Searle and Foucault, and others, shows that, despite conventional wisdom and all-too-common mutual disparagement, contemporary philosophy does not divide neatly into two intellectual domains defined by incommensurable principles. The differences among these groupings of philosophers are more a matter of disparities among aggregates of university philosophy departments than a gulf between two fundamental perspectives, and the disparities are due more to selective reading, ingrained conversational styles, and scholarly inertia than to incompatible perspectives. The undeniable differences in the ways analytic and Continental--or "European"-- philosophers talk, write, and conduct their classes are largely methodological and canonical, and should not preclude useful philosophical dialogue. The insightful articles collected here are not blueprints for closer cooperation between philosophers with different methods and objectives, but they clearly demonstrate that regardless of approach and precedents, analytic and Continental philosophers are all doing philosophy, and there are many important and potentially productive points of contact between them. The contributors include Richard Rorty, Barry Allen, Babette E. Babich, David Cerbone, Sharyn Clough, Jonathan Kaplan, Richard Matthews, C. G. Prado, Bjorn Torgrim Ramberg, Mike Sandbothe, Barry Stocker, and Edward Witherspoon.
