I think we can find followers of Plato's "divided line" thinking in both Continental and Analytic philosophies.  Likewise we can find those who reject the distinction by inverting it (Nietzsche and his followers such as Foucault, Derrida and Deleuze but also empiricists) - but I agree with Heidegger that such an inversion is still thinking too closely with the rejected distinction.  The interesting cases are those who reject the distinction and find a new way of approaching the problem.  and i do not mean by setting up a new dualism such as Descartes.
