WHAT DOES ANALYTICAL PHILOSOPHY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Analytic philosophy

Analytic philosophy is a style of philosophy that came to dominate English-speaking countries in the 20th century. In the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Scandinavia, Australia, and New Zealand, the vast majority of university philosophy departments identify themselves as "analytic" departments. The term "analytic philosophy" can refer to: ▪ A broad philosophical tradition characterized by an emphasis on clarity and argument and a respect for the natural sciences. ▪ The more specific set of developments of early 20th-century philosophy that were the historical antecedents of the broad sense: e.g., the work of Bertrand Russell, Ludwig Wittgenstein, G. E. Moore, Gottlob Frege, and logical positivists. In this latter, narrower sense, analytic philosophy is identified with specific philosophical commitments, such as: ▪ The logical positivist principle that there are no specifically philosophical truths and that the object of philosophy is the logical clarification of thoughts. This may be contrasted with the traditional foundationalism, which considers philosophy to be a special science that investigates the fundamental reasons and principles of everything.
