Published in 1953, Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations had
a deeply unsettling effect upon our most basic philosophical ideas
concerning thought, sensation and language. Its claim that
philosophical questions of meaning necessitate a close analysis of
the way we use language continues to influence Anglo-American
philosophy today. However, its compressed and dialogic prose is not
always easy to follow. This collection of essays deepens but also
challenges our understanding of the work's major themes, such as
the connection between meaning and use, the nature of concepts,
thought and intentionality, and language games. Bringing together
leading philosophers and Wittgenstein scholars, it offers a
genuinely critical approach and demonstrating Wittgenstein's
relevance for contemporary philosophy. This volume will appeal to
readers interested in the later Wittgenstein, in addition to those
interested in the philosophy of language, the philosophy of mind,
metaphysics and epistemology.
