Philosophy Discussion Forum

we shall be seeing the Analytic Philosophers: these are primarily, Bertrand Russell, Ludwig Wittgenstein, among others, and the Pragmatists, such as John Dewey.

I want you to give a brief summary of those three individuals, as well as the schools of thought they represent.

Then, compare and contrast them with the Rationalists, Empircists, and other members of The Band, we have seen, so far. 🙂
