Are you saying that you believe Wittgenstein’s is a no holds barred, anything goes approach? A radical relativism? — Joshs
Yep, Wittgenstein is a form of relativism:the language game, the form of life has no rationale, it can be anything we want it to be (meaning is use, the rule following paradox). There is no correct Wittgenstein, there's only Wittgenstein just like there's no correct taste, there's only taste. — Agent Smith
I reaffirm my position which is there's no samyak-dṛṣṭi (right view) when it comes to Wittgenstein; in fact I would take this a step further - Wittgenstein wishes to endorse anekantavada (many-sidedness/perspectivism) — Agent Smith
Derrida’s and my point is that there is a difference between ‘no right view’ and anything goes. For both him and Wittgenstein, what is correct and right can be constrained and determined in quite precise ways in relation to linguistic contexts of interaction within communities and cultures. What they deny is the idea that rightness can be fixed from some
culture-independent view from nowhere. — Joshs
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
