Theoria, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Some commentators argue that the notes collected as Wittgenstein's On Certainty provide the basis for a groundbreaking epistemological theory and response to scepticism. This theory pertains to the role of what some have called the hinge propositions of our inquiry, following Wittgenstein's metaphor of hinges of a door. This paper examines one

The Grammatical Structure of Scientific Revolutions
Theoria, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this article, I examine the structural parallels between Thomas Kuhn's philosophy of science and Ludwig Wittgenstein's later thought, focusing on the idea of grammatical frameworks. My central claim is that Kuhn's concept of paradigm and its later, more language‐centred forms in his philosophy can be read as a Wittgensteinian grammatical ...

Wittgenstein On Moral Certainty
Philosophical Investigations, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 267-278, July 2026.ABSTRACT Moral certainty is a growing research area in philosophy with implications for current debates on hinge epistemology, moral change and deep moral disagreements.

Noncommutative differential calculus for Moyal subalgebras
, 2006 We build a differential calculus for subalgebras of the Moyal algebra on R^4 starting from a redundant differential calculus on the Moyal algebra, which is suitable for reduction.

Wittgenstein, normativity and the ‘space of reasons’
Philosophical Investigations, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 195-211, April 2026.Abstract Wittgenstein's naturalism illuminates our ordinary normative practices of giving and asking for reasons and also related ‘philosophical’ conceptions of knowledge inspired by, for example, Sellars's image of the ‘space of reasons’. Some propose that the relevant naturalism motivates scepticism about the ‘space of reasons’ insofar as it ...

Philosophical Investigations, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 170-194, April 2026.Abstract In 2008 I published a paper making the case that Wittgenstein's On Certainty reflections can be fruitfully extended to cast light on the foundations of our moral lives and practices. My primary example was that the wrongness of killing is a basic moral certainty.

Certainties and the Bedrock of Moral Reasoning: Three Ways the Spade Turns
Analytic Philosophy, Volume 67, Issue 1, Page 12-24, March 2026.ABSTRACT In this paper, we identify and explain three kinds of bedrock in moral thought. The term “bedrock,” as introduced by Wittgenstein in §217 of the Philosophical Investigations, stands for the end of a chain of reasoning. We affirm that some chains of moral reasoning do indeed end with certainty.
