In this important study, Michael Luntley offers a compelling
reading of Wittgenstein's account of meaning and intentionality,
based upon a unifying theme in the early and later philosophies.
Rejecting readings which see a complete break between the
Philosophical Investigations and the Tractatus, as well as views of
Wittgenstein's mature work which either lament or champion his
anti-philosophical 'quietism', Luntley argues that Wittgenstein's
abiding concern was to show that the conditions for the possibility
of intentionality consist not in a body of theoretical knowledge,
but in perceptual knowledge, in our active capacity to 'see things
aright'.
