Speculative Philosophy:

 Search for order and linkage in ideas.


 It is the way of systematic thinking of everything that exist or
whole. Speculative philosophy means to see things as a whole.

experience. All knowledge experiences are included. In brief
speculative philosophy is the attempt to find a coherence in the
whole realm of thought and experiences.

values, judging conduct and appraising art. It examines what we
mean good and bad, right and wrong, beautiful and ugly. It seeks
to discover and recommend principles for deciding what actions
and qualities are worthwhile why they should be.
Analytic philosophy:

 Process of logical discourse.


 Analytic philosophy examines such notions such as cause,
mind academic freedom, equality of opportunities in order
to assess different meaning what they carry in different
contexts.
