Milkov, Nikolay: The Varieties of Understanding

English Philosophy since 1898. Vol.1: Introduction. Cambridge Analytical Philosophy. Vol. 2: Oxford Analytical Philosophy. From the preface: "My task here is [...] to form a unified picture which will make the map of English analytical philosophy of [20th] Century [...]. This aim includes as its sub-task preserving the authenticity of each philosopher under analysis. For this purpose, we stay very close to the text, preferring to quote the leading places, instead of describing or interpreting them. The result suggested is a strict systematisation of the works and theories of all the eight (nine) philosophers [i.e. Moore, Russell, Wittgenstein, Wisdom, Ryle, Austin, Strawson and Dummett]. This means that, in principle all the works of every philosopher are reviewed, and the main points in everyone of them are systematically enumerated and described. Thus, we hope that this book can serve as a useful companion, or chrestomathy, to the study of the main analytic philosophers in [20th] Century England". Zwei Bände, zus.
