Hour of the wolf
My professional training was solidly within the so-called analytic tradition in philosophy. Some might, therefore, think it strange that the biggest philosophical influences on me have been from what some people think of as “the other side” — continental philosophers. I would include Nietzsche, Husserl, Heidegger, and Sartre — all of whom have exerted significant influence on the way my thought has developed over the years. Of course, this idea of “sides” is just nonsense. The idea that one half of philosophy can afford to proceed in ignorance of what the other half is doing — that’s one of the silliest ideas philosophers have ever had (and the bar has, it goes without saying, been set quite high).
