Description for The Hermeneutic Nature of Analytic Philosophy. A Study of Ernst Tugendhat.
Philosophers, analytic as well as continental, tend to feel uneasy about Ernst Tugendhat, who, though he positions himself in the analytic field, poses questions in the Heideggerian style. This book aims to present Tugendhat as an example of merged horizons, and to prove that any such labels impoverish philosophical research. Translator(s): Haskell, Michael. Num Pages: 264 pages.

Zabala's wonderful epilogue
