Rudolf Carnap (1891-1970) and W. V. O Quine (1908-2000) have long
been seen as key figures of analytic philosophy who are opposed to
each other, due in no small part to their famed debate over the
analytic/synthetic distinction. This volume of new essays assembles
for the first time a number of scholars of the history of analytic
philosophy who see Carnap and Quine as figures largely sympathetic
to each other in their philosophical views. The essays acknowledge
the differences which exist, but through their emphasis on Carnap
and Quine's shared assumption about how philosophy should be
done-that philosophy should be complementary to and continuous with
the natural and mathematical sciences-our understanding of how they
diverge is also deepened. This volume reshapes our understanding
not only of Carnap and Quine, but of the history of analytic
philosophy generally.
