Wittgenstein II.
In this video, Professor Thorsby continues his overview of Wittgenstein's "Philosophical Investigations". In this selection, Wittgenstein offers a further elucidation language-games and how their apply to the definitions of names. Using rules and 'rule following' as a model for what definitions do, Wittgenstein offers a critique of philosophy based upon the method of description. Wittgenstein sees philosophy, along these lines, as a type of therapy. In these selections, Wittgenstein offers an extraordinary discussion that touches upon the nature of philosophy itself.

Thanks Mark! Another excellent series/ presentation. I've named one of my kittens Wittgenstein, so I've felt the need to do some more research on the man/work 😂.
lucid and clear !! ( this is an assertion without assumptions ;) )
The audio quality is much better than first part.
Thank you. This is very helpful
Thank you !
Essentialism or abstraction , the idea of seeing some general category, is not merely a method of thinking but biological, it is how our brain functions. When someone asks you what did you see, you report seeing a car. They then ask you details of the car and you are unable to answer because you were "not paying attention." Your brain in default mode sees an image and automatically encodes the essence of the image, an element of a general category. To see more detail requires additional effort needed to examine this car in greater detail.
@58:50 How about this: There is a philosophical problem, but we don't have a rule to describe it? I think I get Wittgenstein's vibe, but I don't view that our language creates the philosophical problem. Our language attempts to describe it and resolve it.
did you name the video "Wittgenstein II." on purpose? There could be more viewers if you'd typed down "...Philosophical Investigations..." additionally. anyone can reach this video by just following the word Wittgenstein, sure, and not only that but also having found the first part of the series. the only thing that this is still harder for one to get this video this way.
@23:20... Dem foundations... 😂
