This radical reading of Wittgenstein's third and last masterpiece,
"On Certainty," has major implications for philosophy. It
elucidates Wittgenstein's ultimate thoughts on the nature of our
basic beliefs and his demystification of skepticism. Our basic
certainties are shown to be nonepistemic, nonpropositional
attitudes that, as such, have no verbal occurrence but manifest
themselves exclusively in our actions. This fundamental certainty
is a belief-"in," a primitive confidence or" ur-trust" whose
practical nature bridges the hitherto unresolved catagorial gap
between belief and action.
