What a strange non-sequitur.
The clusters look strange to me as well - I don’t see any expected names aside from Plato and Aristotle for classics.
The choice of embedding a first-person narrative into the poster is also quite strange.

- FabHK 8y ago> embedding a first-person narrative Not exactly a narrative (as in, story telling), but rather a methodology section (ok, with "I" instead of the conventional "we" or passive). (Note that the embedded text does not exactly correspond to the attached text, btw.) I found the projection and clustering informative. I thought continental philosophy was quite far out, and good riddance. That north-western corner seems to cover most of hermeneutics. (Mathematical topics are even further out, such as set theory and recursion.) What expected names were missing? Popper, Quine, Rawls, Nozick, Parfit, all there.
