2009-07-04 - Philosophy - The great divide (Continental / Analytic)

Author: ABC Radio National
Sat, Jul 04, 2009


This week, we examine a division in the philosophical world, between what´s called analytic philosophy, as practised in the English-speaking world and the Nordic nations, and continental philosophy.

If you´re sitting Paris, the analytical stuff is likely to seem abstract, dry and quite unconnected with human realities.

2009-06-13 - A conversation with Isaiah Berlin

Author: ABC Radio National
Sat, Jun 13, 2009


Last week, we commemorated the centenary of the birth of the greatest British philosopher and historian of ideas, Isaiah Berlin. This week, we raid the ABC archives for a long interview in which Berlin talks about human freedom: are we free and, if we are not free, can we be moral? Are we responsible for what we do or can circumstances let us off the hook?
