Abstract

In the article provides an overview the history of the emergence of analytical philosophy. It is shown that among the numerous works devoted to this topic, M. Potter's book "The Rise of Analytical Philosophy 1879-1930: from Frege to Russell" (2019) occupies a special place, both in terms of assessing the contribution of the "founding fathers" and in the manner of presentation. In particular, J. fell out of the traditional four. Moore, whose place was taken by F. Ramsay. Further, the traditional description of the philosopher's achievements, followed by criticism, gave way to a list of key moments in his work, which take the form of an "internal history", the history of searches, finds, mistakes, omissions, inconsistencies and doubts of philosophers. The new story presented by Potter gives a radically different picture of the rise of a new philosophical tradition compared to the traditional one.
