	Wittgenstein's Poker by David Edmonds and John Eidinow \| Special Reports \| Guardian Unlimited Books
		In Peter's case this may in part be a reaction to the fickleness of his father, who was in the habit of switching between religions every few months without apparent agonies of conscience; in Elizabeth's case to her being a convert.
		Peter Gray-Lucas, a talented linguist, fluent in German, played his part in the war at the top-secret decoding centre at Bletchley Park, where so much of the Nazis' fighting strategy was undone.
		Wittgenstein turned active, grabbed the iron poker, and waved it in a hostile manner, his voice rising in pitch, as he berated the visitor.

	Essays in Philosophy
		Wittgenstein's point in introducing the notion of family resemblances was to show that it is a mistake to insist that because we use the same word to refer to different objects that there must be some essential property of those objects in virtue of which we use the same word for them all.
		Wittgenstein's answer to this was that the question is a faulty one; it displays a misunderstanding of the relationship between names and descriptions.
		Wittgenstein held that in some cases it is in virtue of the causal chain that reference occurs and in some cases in virtue of the descriptions associated with the name.

	Amazon.ca: Wittgenstein: Books: Peter Hacker (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		I used to be quite taken with Wittgenstein, but after much more exposure to philosophy, cognitive science, and mathematics, I now tend to find his views on these subjects mostly irritating, even if I find W. the man more interesting.
		Hacker's introduction to the later philosophy of Wittgenstein is a very brief but suprisingly in-depth discussion of the central issues.
		Most of the little book is dedicated to Wittgenstein's remarks concerning the philosophy of psychology but the opening section on Wittgenstein's conception of philosophy is enjoyeable to read.

		The course is to acquaint students with these methods, be detailed reconstruction of texts in which Wittgenstein deploys them to resolve a series of notorious puzzles in both the philosophy of language and the philosophy of mind.
		Wittgenstein’s later approach is usually assimilated to that of "ordinary language philosophy", by both his followers and his critics.
		By comparing Wittgenstein’s proceeding with that of paradigmatic "ordinary language philosophers" such as Moore, Ryle, and Austin, and by highlighting the differences, the course is to bring out the "therapeutic" dimension of Wittgenstein’s conception of philosophy that appears to be untouched by the standard objections against "ordinary language philosophy".

	INTERPRETATION AND LEGAL THEORY
		Reminding the reader of Hart’s distinction between the core and penumbra of concept-words, he argues that this distinction is entrenched in a “highly sophisticated conception of meaning and language, namely, that of Wittgenstein” (p.96).
		And this is, in turn, not an inner state of mind, but rather an (array) of abilities to use the expression in accordance with the rules of the language.
		What follows is a discussion of the role of the legislator’s intentions and their role in the interpretation of statutes and an attempt to elucidate the conditions under which it would be reasonable for judges to defer to the legislature’s intentions in statutory interpretation (ch.8).

		Peter Finch's translation of Wittgenstein's remarks on culture and value presents all entries chronologically, with the German text alongside the English and a subject index for reference.
		Peter Winch, who did the compilation, notes he excluded anything of too personal a nature but, given what got through, I can only conclude that the other stuff must have been doozies.
		Wittgenstein is not about a theory of reality but a process of thinking, asking different questions, never taking anything for granted, always pushing against conventional wisdom, pushing thought to its limits.

		Such critical expositions try to both clarify the theory or view in question and consider its adequacy, sense, utility, etc. The interpretation of Wittgenstein’s theories is not an easy job, and I have recommended a number of secondary sources for many of the topics.
		A perfectly appropriate “strategy” for papers here is to examine another individual’s exposition: clarify Wittgenstein’s view, and what this interpretation attributes to Wittgenstein, and then critically consider whether you feel it “fits the text,” and whether its critical perspective on the original text is appropriate or correct.

	Aleister Crowley as Guru
		Crowley shared with Wittgenstein the urge to submerge others in his own will, to overcome their alienness by dominating and influencing them.
		However, just as Wittgenstein rejected the idea that his influence should be restricted to academics, so Crowley repudiates any suggestion that he is speaking to some class restricted in scope.
		These were the waters in which he fished, as Lenin and Mao in those of revolutionary tradition, and Wittgenstein among philosophy students.

		Malcolm first draws together a large and illuminating collection of remarks made by Wittgenstein at various stages of his life and in many different contexts, which are expressive of his attitude to religion.
		He discusses both some of the ways in which Wittgenstein was drawn to religious ways of thinking and also speculates concerning the barriers, which stayed him from full religious commitment.
		He proposes that Wittgenstein saw an analogy between religious thinking and his own thinking about philosophical questions and the book ends with an attempt to substantiate this and describe the nature of this analogy.
