WITTGENSTEIN ON FORMULAE [PDF]
This paper discusses Wittgenstein's treatment of formulae. In particular, it will be shown that although Wittgenstein frequently investigates both equations (e.g. x 2 + 1 = 0, ^ xx(x - 1) = x 2 - x) and formulae in a narrow sense (e.g. sin 2x, r 2π), he rarely addresses the two together, let alone discusses the latter as parts of equations.

Abstract Throughout his career, Wittgenstein harbored distrust for identity statements. In the Tractatus Logico‐Philosophicus, he banned a sign for identity from his system, declaring that “to say of two things that they are identical is nonsense, and to say of one thing that it is identical with itself is to say nothing at all.” His ...

In Wittgenstein’s later writings , he occasionally notes (parenthetically) that his remarks pertain to grammatical problems instead of psychological or causal ones (Z §§318 & 419). Briefly discussing Wittgenstein’s own elementary teaching experience to provide background , contrast is drawn between issues of efficacy in teaching and normative training ...

The topic is Wittgenstein’s eventual abandonment of his Tractatus idea that a sentence is true if and only if it depicts a possible fact that obtains, and his coming (in the Investigations) to replace this with a deflationary view of truth. Three objection to the initial idea that will be discussed here are: (i) that its theory of ‘depiction’ relies on

Abstract “I myself still find my way of philosophizing new, & it keeps striking me so afresh, & that is why I have to repeat myself so often. […] [R]epetitions […] [f]or me […] are necessary.” (CV 1998: 3e) Wittgenstein's style is well known for its recursive—and according to some interpreters, even obsessive-compulsive—quality ...

Royal Institute of Philosophy Supplement, 1973
It is sometimes said that a human being has a soul, whereas animals and lifeless things do not. The distinction made is of significance probably for most religions. Although it sets man apart and places him in a unique category, it should not be taken to imply that there is no difference between what is alive and has sentience, apart from man, and what
