Metaphilosophy (from Greek <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_%28language%29> meta <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta> + philosophy <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy> ) is the study of the subject and matter, methods <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophical_method> and aims of philosophy <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy> . It is the "philosophy of philosophy". The recursive study of philosophy is an integral part of the philosophical enterprise because it is intertwined with all branches of philosophy as is logic <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic> or epistemology <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epistemology> . Most metaphilosophy is part of either the formation or the criticism of a philosophical school, but some philosophers devote their time almost exclusively to metaphilosophy such as Stephen Toulmin <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Toulmin> , Richard Rorty <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Rorty> and some continental philosophers <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_philosophy> .
