Uses of Sense Wittgenstein's Philosophy of Language

This book provides a novel interpretation of the ideas about language in Ludwig Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations. Travis places the "private language argument" in the context of wider themes in the Investigations, and thereby develops a picture of what it is for words to bear the meaning they do. He elaborates two versions of a private language argument, and shows the consequences of these for current trends in the philosophical theory of meaning.Travis, Charles is the author of 'Uses of Sense Wittgenstein's Philosophy of Language' with ISBN 9780198249429 and ISBN 019824942X.
