Descrizione
Philosophy and the Modern Mind: The Rise of Analytic Philosophy by Andrew Conley traces the intellectual journey of analytic philosophy from its early roots to its prominence in the 20th century. Focusing on key figures such as Gottlob Frege, Bertrand Russell, Ludwig Wittgenstein, and others, this work explores the evolution of philosophical thought that emphasized clarity, logical analysis, and the use of language as a means of resolving traditional metaphysical and epistemological problems. The book delves into the historical and intellectual contexts that shaped analytic philosophy, examining its confrontations with empiricism, logical positivism, and the skepticism of postmodern thinkers. Conley also highlights the lasting influence of analytic philosophy on contemporary debates in philosophy of language, epistemology, ethics, and the philosophy of mind. This comprehensive account reflects on how analytic philosophy has not only shaped academic discourse but also influenced practical fields such as cognitive science, artificial intelligence, and political theory.
