  • David Suchoff Family Resemblances: Ludwig Wittgenstein As a Jewish Philosopher the Admonition to Silence with Which Wittgenstein
    David Suchoff Family Resemblances: Ludwig Wittgenstein as a Jewish Philosopher The admonition to silence with which Wittgenstein ended the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (1922) also marks the starting point for the emer- gence of his Jewish philosophical voice. Karl Kraus provides an instructive contrast: as a writer well known to Wittgenstein, Kraus’s outspoken and aggressive ridicule of “jüdeln” or “mauscheln” –the actual or alleged pronunciation of German with a Jewish or Yiddish accent – defined a “self-fashioning” of Jewish identity – from German and Hebrew in this case – that modeled false alternatives in philosophic terms.1 Kraus pre- sented Wittgenstein with an either-or choice between German and Jewish identity, while engaging in a witty but also unwitting illumination of the interplay between apparently exclusive alternatives that were linguistically influenced by the other’s voice. As Kraus became a touchstone for Ger- man Jewish writers from Franz Kafka to Walter Benjamin and Gershom Scholem, he also shed light on the situation that allowed Wittgenstein to develop his own non-essentialist notion of identity, as the term “family resemblance” emerged from his revaluation of the discourse around Judaism. This transition from The False Prison, as David Pears calls Wittgenstein’s move from the Tractatus to the Philosophical Investiga- tions, was also a transformation of the opposition between German and Jewish “identities,” and a recovery of the multiple differences from which such apparently stable entities continually draw in their interconnected forms of life.2 “I’ll teach you differences,” the line from King Lear that Wittgenstein mentioned to M. O’C. Drury as “not bad” as a “motto” for the Philo- sophical Investigations, in this way represents Wittgenstein’s assertion of a German Jewish philosophic position.

  • Linguistic Scepticism in Mauthner's Philosophy
    LiberaPisano Misunderstanding Metaphors: Linguistic ScepticisminMauthner’s Philosophy Nous sommes tous dans un désert. Personne ne comprend personne. Gustave Flaubert¹ This essayisanoverview of Fritz Mauthner’slinguistic scepticism, which, in my view, represents apowerful hermeneutic category of philosophical doubts about the com- municative,epistemological, and ontological value of language. In order to shed light on the main features of Mauthner’sthought, Idrawattention to his long-stand- ing dialogue with both the sceptical tradition and philosophyoflanguage. This con- tribution has nine short sections: the first has an introductory function and illus- tratesseveral aspectsoflinguistic scepticism in the history of philosophy; the second offers acontextualisation of Mauthner’sphilosophyoflanguage; the remain- der present abroad examination of the main features of Mauthner’sthought as fol- lows: the impossibility of knowledge that stems from aradicalisationofempiricism; the coincidencebetween wordand thought,thinkingand speaking;the notion of use, the relevanceoflinguistic habits,and the utopia of communication; the decep- tive metaphors at the root of an epoché of meaning;the new task of philosophyasan exercise of liberation against the limits of language; the controversial relationship between Judaism and scepticism; and the mystical silence as an extreme conse- quence of his thought.² Mauthnerturns scepticism into aform of life and philosophy into acritique of language, and he inauguratesanew approach that is traceable in manyGerman—Jewish

  • Speech Acts and Word-World Relationship: Aphenomenological Perspective
    SPEECH ACTS AND WORD-WORLD RELATIONSHIP: APHENOMENOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF Ph.D IN PHILOSOPHY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH BENGAL BY._... SATI SINGH UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF DR. MANJULIKA GHOSH UNIVERSITY OF NORTH BENGAL RAJA RAMMOHUNPUR, DARJEELING APRIL, 2009 Preface I was drawn to the theme of my research work through the instructions of my teachers in the Department of Philosophy, University of North Bengal during my Post-Graduate studentship. I was captivated both by analytic philosophy as well as the phenomenology of Husserl which was a closed world to us in our Under-Graduate class. In my work I have not said anything completely original. I have tried to restate, reanalyse, revaluate positions and arguments critically and discover hidden connections. Bridge building between desperate traditions in philosophy has started. l consider my work as an endeavour to understand this intellectual climate. ( Sati Singh) . ' Acknowledgement I owe a deep sense of gratitude to my supervisor Dr. (Mrs.) Manjulika Ghosh for everything she has done for me in the way of inspiring, helping and providing invaluable guidance and also in improving my style and expression. But for her I could not have completed this project. Dr. Ghosh who retired as a Professor in the Department of Philosophy. University of North Bengal in 2006. helped me in choosing the specific area of my work which is a further development of my M. Phil. Dissertation. The Supervisor of my M. Phil. Dissertation was Dr. Gautam Biswas who is now a Professor in the Department of Philosophy of Assam University, Silchar.
