So, you've turned into the Bouveresse clan?
I read about him, but I've been wary since I'm still quite fond of the french continentals. Is he worth it?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

No, but I'm enjoying his snarky tone. He clearly is not your typical analytic defender. He doesn't even attack continental philosophy per se, just some of the wishy-washy trends. The main focus is to dispel some of the continental prejudices about analytic philosophy.

His work is very much in the vein of Andre Carus, a kind of rekindling of core values of enlightenment, or the Re-Enlightenment project as they call it.

It sounds quite good to smash the mirages built around logic and to complement your recommendations (which btw I'm going over very slow). It's funny he did a monograph on Bourdieu, but then again Bourdieu was a reader of both Quine and Carnap (don't know if a good one though)

Yes, Bourdieu was a closeted analytic, and yes not a good one. Kind of a self-hating closeted.
