دانلود کتاب Philosophical Grammar

certain other reviewers of this book may have missed the point. Not that it isn’t okay to miss the point from time to time, Sometimes it’s a good thing to miss the point, but its not very useful in a book review. The short reason as to why this book is worth reading is because it was edited by Rush Rhees who has a different point of view on Wittgenstein than many of his other literary executors which is worth being exposed to. The mid-sized reason is that this is “Middle Period” Wittgenstein, and it is interesting to watch a great mind question itself in the way that Wittgenstein is beginning to do here. The long reason is that there are ideas here that are referenced in the Late Wittgenstein and which shed light on the ideas Wittgenstein comes to in On Certainty, Philosophical Investigations, and Zettel.

So in short, pay no attention to reviewers who lack the background to understand what this book is for, or who don’t know how to read a book like this. If you’ve not yet been exposed to Wittgenstein, don’t start here. Read Philosophical Investigations and On Certainty first. Read the Blue and Brown Books. Browse through Zettel and Philosophical Remarks. Those all contain a more cohesive picture of the man’s thought. For people with some background on Wittgenstein looking for more to ponder, well, that’s what I got from this book. And it’s valuable.
