Description
During the last 25 years, a large number of publications on the history of analytic philosophy have appeared, significantly more than in the preceding period.
As most of these works are by analytically trained authors, it is tempting to speak of a 'historical turn' in analytic philosophy.
The present volume constitutes both a contribution to this body of work and a reflection on what is, or might be, achieved in it.
The twelve new essays, by an international group of contributors, range from case studies on individual philosophers (Russell, Carnap, Quine, and Ryle) through discussions of broader themes in the history of analytic philosophy (in logic and philosophy of language, philosophy of mathematics, epistemology, philosophy of mind and psychology) to related methodological reflections (on the relationship between doing analytic philosophy and studying the history of philosophy, on various forms of philosophical history, and on their respective benefits).
