Summary/Abstract: I agree that the unity of the method of analytic philosophy is an illusion and, as a result, I intend to discuss about the varieties of analysis in analytic philosophy. My strategy is to argue that the so called “linguistic turn” was followed by several attempts to develop a method in analitic philosophy and to assure at least its methodological identity. Therefore, I think that the decompositional analysis is, in the same time, in continuity with traditional philosophy and also the first way to perform in analitic philosophy. The logical analysis proposed by Frege become the main paradigm of analysis and, historically, it had some forms as logical reduction, logical contruction or rational reconstruction. The other main paradigm is he conceptual analysis developed by Wittgenstein in Philosophical investigations. I think that a historical concept of analytic philosophy is useful for a better understanding of this variety of analyical method.
