In this invited lecture and discussion at Virginia Commonwealth University, I discuss the question put to me - What can Analytic and Continental philosophers learn from each other? - and several other related topics, including the Analytic-Continental divide, the history and nature of both Analytic and Continental philosophy, and the importance of what has been left out of the picture, particularly historically-focused and -based approaches in philosophy.
