Abstract
In this paper I want to show how Bernard Williams contributed, especially with his ‘turn’ in Ethics and the Limits of Philosophy, to overcoming the dichotomy between analytic and continental philosophy, creating a style of reflection in which conceptual analysis is deeply connected with historical awareness. The idea of genealogy, taken from Nietzsche but heavily modified by Williams, then emerged in books such as Shame and Necessity and Truth and Truthfulness, as an efficacious method for reflection in theoretical and practical philosophy.File in questo prodotto:
