Traditional and Analytical Philosophy

Klappentext A study of some of the central and abiding questions of metaphysics and the philosophy of language by Ernst Tugendhat. Zusammenfassung Ernst Tugendhat was trained in the Heideggerian modes of phenomenological and hermeneutical thinking. Yet increasingly he came to believe that the most appropriate approach was from within the framework of analytical philosophy. This book grew out of that conviction! and as such it brought a fresh perspective to some of the rarely examined assumptions and methods of analysis.

Zusammenfassung
Ernst Tugendhat was trained in the Heideggerian modes of phenomenological and hermeneutical thinking. Yet increasingly he came to believe that the most appropriate approach was from within the framework of analytical philosophy. This book grew out of that conviction, and as such it brought a fresh perspective to some of the rarely examined assumptions and methods of analysis.
