Thesis Title: Nonsense, Dialogue and Polemics between Analytic and Continental Philosophy

About

I have been researching the so-called 'gulf' between ‘analytic’ and ‘continental’ philosophy, as it developed in the twentieth century through particular encounters between representatives of each side between 1891 and 1977 (Frege and Husserl; Carnap and Heidegger; Ayer, Merleau-Ponty and Bataille; Merleau-Ponty and Ryle; Derrida and Searle). Examining these encounters has led me to an examination of the development of theories of meaning (and nonsense) in the twentieth century and to their metaphilosophical consequences, as well as to questions about the function of dialogue and polemics in philosophical exchange.
I have also been reading on Zeno of Citium and the early Stoa, and I have taught on the relation of philosophy to architecture at the University of Cyprus.
