Description
Summary:In this paper an overview of the history of analytic philosophy along the Twentieth century is presented, paying special attention to the towering figure of W. V. Quine and highlighting some of the pragmatist roots that probably explain the successful transplant of the logical empiricism of the Vienna Circle to the United States during the second half of the century. The thesis defended is that the analytic tradition in the last decade of the twentieth century and the first decades of the twenty-first is gaining new vigor thanks to the work of Putnam, Rorty, Cavell, MacIntyre, Taylor and others. With the best of the pragmatist tradition, these philosophers are renovating philosophical reflection dealing with the problems of men and women, thus shortening the huge gap between philosophy as an academic discipline and the deepest aspirations of human beings.
En este trabajo se presenta un panorama sumario de la historia de la filosofía analítica a lo largo del siglo XX, prestando una especial atención a la figura señera de W. V. Quine y destacando algunas de las raíces pragmatistas que probablemente dan razón del exitoso transplante del empirismo lógico a los Estados Unidos de América. La tesis que se defiende es que la tradición analítica en la última década del siglo XX y en la primera del XXI hatomado nuevo vigor gracias al trabajo de Putnam, Rorty, Cavell, MacIntyre, Taylor y otros, que al tratar de insertar la genuina reflexión filosófica en los problemas de los hombres recuperan lo mejor de la tradición pragmatista, acortando así la enorme distancia existente entre la filosofía como disciplina académica y las más profundas aspiraciones de los seres humanos.
