 Analytic philosophy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
One interpretation of these remarks found expression in the doctrine of the logical positivists that statements about value--including all ethical and aesthetic judgments--are, like metaphysical claims, literally meaningless and therefore non-cognitive; that is, not able to be either true or false.
The latter denotes mainly philosophy that has taken place on continental Europe after (but not including) Kant.
Wittgenstein, in the Tractatus, remarks that values cannot be a part of the world, and if they are anything at all they must be beyond or outside the world somehow, and that hence language, which describes the world, can say nothing about them.

 Continental Feminism
For those continental feminists who hold sex to be an entirely constructed category, upon which sexual injustice rests and depends, forming a sexually just society and politics demands the radical deconstruction of sex and sexuality.
Few of the traditional figures in continental philosophy (even Foucault, with his explicit attention to sexuality) directly addressed the issue of sexual difference.
In their criticism of liberalism as an insufficient response to sexual inequality, continental feminists are fairly unified; in their diagnosis of what a sexually just society would entail, significant differences remain.

 Philosophy 155: Continental Philosophy
Many recent continental philosophers, e.g., the members of the Frankfurt School and Foucault, have devoted themselves to a critique of the way in which the Enlightenment notion of rationality has been transformed from a logic of human liberation to a politically conservative instrument of domination.
In this course we shall trace these developments through a reading of various texts in the Enlightenment tradition and more recent ones critical of modern distortions of this tradition.
Other continental philosophers, e.g., Derrida and his followers, have challenged our ability simply to interpret the world, to say nothing of our ability to change it.

 The Philosophical Gourmet Report 2004 - 2006 :: Analytic and Continental Philosophy
Indeed, it is fair to say that analytic philosophy is the philosophical movement most continuous with the "grand" tradition in philosophy, the tradition of Aristotle and Descartes and Hume and Kant.
"Continental" philosophy, by contrast, demarcates a group of French and German philosophers of the 19th and 20th centuries.

 Contemporary Continental Philosophy
One of the primary foci of continental philosophy has been a critique of the subject-object relation as it is construed within the tradition.
Continental philosophy maintains that subjectivity is constituted by and through relations to the world.
Thus, to explore the notion of subjectivity, we must explore the way in which self and world are co-constituting of one another; we shape the world, but the world shapes us.

For example, present concerns include the relation of antiquity to thinkers such as Hegel, Schelling, and Heidegger, dialogue between Anglo-American and Continental feminist discourses, conversations between Marxism and deconstruction on the one hand and pragmatism on the other, and Levinas’s relation to earlier generations of Jewish thought.

This course explores one of the most significant contributions of 20th-century, European Continental philosophy: namely, the philosophy of embodiment that arises within a critique of Western Logocetrism (in general) and Cartesian mind-body dualism (in particular).
We will read early works by Husserl and Heidegger regarding the so-called "discovery of the lifeworld" or "everydayness" and then examine how French philosophers and psychoanalysts such as Merleau-Ponty, Lacan, Foucault, Kristeva and Irigary developed a "social- constructivist" account of embodiment.
