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.
