Synopsis:

Examines Wittgenstein's philosophical analysis of rules and their observance, focusing on his concept of private language

Review: Saul Kripke has thought uncommonly hard about the central argument of Wittgenstein's "Philosophical Investigations" and produced an uncommonly clear and vivid account of that argument...set out with all the clarity, incisiveness and economy that one expects of its author.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. x, 150 pp. Original cloth. Near Fine, in near fine dust jacket. 'There is no doubt that Ludwig Wittgenstein thought the topic of rule following to be important; nearly forty sections of the Philosophical Investigations are devoted to it, as are large swatches of the manuscripts published as Remarks on the Foundations of Mathematics. Its relevance to Wittgenstein's philosophy of mathematics was emphasized early on by Michael Dummett, but only recently has it received significant attention in the less specialized context of the Investigations, that is, with respect to questions of meaning and intentionality. This recent attention has, to a large extent, been engendered by Saul Kripke's exposition of Wittgenstein, first presented publicly at the 1976 Wittgenstein Colloquium in London, Ontario, and laid out more expansively in his recent book, Wittgenstein on Rules and Private Language' (Warren Goldfarb, review for The Journal of Philosophy, Vol. 82, No. 9, Sept., 1985, pp. 471-488).
