Anaylitic Philosophy
I guess I am asking are there creative arguments that appear in analytic philosophy alone without it being simply a translation of older philosophy into mathematical terms?

Re: Anaylitic Philosophy
My experience is that all 'philosophical thought' is 'analytical'/critical!MutatedFunges wrote: ↑April 22nd, 2018, 7:50 pm I don't have a lot of experience with analytic philosophy, but from the little I do have, it appears tautological. For example, Frege, who was trying to isolate the psychological component from the logical in languages, looks like it heavily relies on conclusions already found within Kant's work.

Are you referring to the masturbatory Rubic's Cube of 'formal logic'?
