Document Summary
Continental philosophers and continental breakfasts- jokes: ap says that the rigour demanded by analytic tradition absent and replaced by something poetic, literary. Today, there are many who are part of ap, the dominant form in. North america, who have turned to figures like hegel and nietzsche, with a resurgence of interest in their work. People in cp have likewise gone back and engaged works of ap. The term may disappear in the near future: when, according to ap, does cp begin, early 19th century, after kant"s work, period called german idealism , early 20th century, with different responses to neo-kantianism. Kant falls out of fashion in german philosophy for a good portion of the 19th century, resurgence of interest in early 20th. Obvious problems with the distinction between cp and ap: geographical vs. methodological distinction- the analytic philosophers who gave the name cp meant it to be more than just a geographical distinction.
