Convergence and its limits: Relations between analytic and continental philosophy
Philosophical Explorations 1 (1):28 – 42 (1998)
| Abstract | In this article, it is argued that a convergence between the (post-)analytic and continental traditions in philosophy is unlikely. Both traditions have fundamentally different approaches to questions concerning consciousness and subjectivity. They also differ in their conception of the role of philosophy, if we are to become autonomous and reflective humans beings.To illustrate this, a comparison is made between the work of the continental philosopher Dieter Henrich and the 'post-analytic' philosopher Thomas Nagel, who is often seen as a typical 'converger'. | |||||||||
