Phenomenology and analysis

The history of twentieth century philosophy is characterized by the gap between analytic and continental philosophy - even though both have their roots in a tradition referred to as „Austrian“ or „Central-European“ philosophy. The essays in this volume show in historical and systematic studies, how a reassessment of this „Central-European“ tradition can build an interesting bridge between phenomenology and analytic philosophy and, thus, create a new foundation that allows for an original perspective on central problems of philosophy.
