Description
Russell, Idealism, and the Emergence of Analytic Philosophy by Peter Hylton
This book explores a pivotal moment in the development of twentieth-century analytic philosophy, examining the rejection of British Idealism by influential thinkers such as Bertrand Russell and G. E. Moore. The work of Russell, in particular, is scrutinised in the period leading up to the First World War, shedding light on the nature of analytic philosophy and its origins.
Through a close analysis of this critical period, Hylton provides valuable insights into the emergence of analytic philosophy, making this book an essential resource for anyone interested in the subject.
