The Later Wittgenstein’s Wise Maturity. The Philosophical Quarantine. Forbiden Metaphisical Uses of the Words

Summary/Abstract: Ludwig Wittgenstein is one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century, author of fundamental contributions to the development of modern logic and philosophy of language. He revolutionized the history of thought in two ways, as a result, two periods are clearly distinguished in his philosophy: the one that corresponds to the descriptive theory of meaning and the other that supports the practical aspect of language and revolves around the maxim “the meaning of a word lies in its use”. The greatest achievement of the second period is Philosophical Investigations, a work that lasted twenty years and was published posthumously in 1951. If his only work published during his lifetime, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus is listed as one of the most difficult philosophical works and reflects The Early Wittgenstein thought, Philosophical Investigation is considered to be his most important one and put in the light The Later Wittgenstein’s wise maturity.Moving away from the metaphysical uses of words by specific procedures such as language games, the ability to see clearly the word’s image, without deluding ourselves in enigmatic interpretations but, only by resorting to the simple process of description make possible Wittgensteinian philosophy conceptually based on the idea of life form shared between members of a community at a given time.
