Abstract:
The essays collected in this volume explore some of the themes that
have been at the centre of recent debates within Wittgensteinian
scholarship. In opposition to what we are tentatively inclined to
think, the articles of this volume invite us to understand that our
need to grasp the essence of ethical and religious thought and
language will not be achieved by metaphysical theories expounded from
such a point of view, but by focusing on our everyday forms of
expression.
