Wittgenstein on believing in Philosophical Investigations
part II, chapter 10 / John F. M. Hunter.
520 Although there is a vast amount of secondary literature on
the Philosophical Investigations, comparatively little
exists which adduces exegetical arguments in favour of
particular readings of specific passages. The seemingly
disjointed structure of the book has often been taken as a
licence to interpret its passages out of context, and
there has been a tendency to plunge immediately into
discussions about their tenability. In this collection,
distinguished Wittgenstein scholars approach the
Investigations with the conviction that careful
consideration of text and context is needed prior to
pronouncements being made on the philosophical
significance of individual remarks. Diverse exegetical
approaches are represented: while some believe that the
Investigations can be read as an independent text, others
maintain it is essential to look at the context of a
particular remark or variations on it in Wittgenstein's
other texts. The authors also differ in their assessment
of the philosophical value of their material. Some try to
show that careful interpretation reveals valuable insights
in what are prima facie untenable passages. Others
conclude that certain remarks fail to resolve the issues
they address. This is the first strictly exegetical
collection of papers on the Investigations, and it fulfils
a task no commentary could by exhibiting different
interpretive strategies in application to paradigmatic
trouble-spots. Therefore it is a major contribution to the
understanding of the Investigations and of Wittgenstein's
thought in general. It is essential and fascinating
reading for those who are interested in this important
strand of twentieth-century philosophy.
