Focusing on the evolution of analytic philosophy, D.S. Clarke argues that its shift around 1960 towards materialistic metaphysics and a scientific approach was misguided. He critiques contemporary materialism for misinterpreting the function of language, suggesting it primarily serves to influence rather than merely state facts. Clarke advocates for a philosophical approach that emphasizes the distinctions and similarities between everyday language and specialized discourses, positioning philosophy as essential for integrating diverse cultural elements.
