Wittgenstein's philosophy of language, it seems, contains significant clues about his philosophy of the concept of life. Here Kishik (philosophy, Borough of Manhattan Community College) mines Wittgenstein's work to reveal the philosopher's development of intricate relationships between language and life, providing a holistic and synoptic view of evolving thought. He also provides a solid foundation for the work of such influential American scholars as Cavell, Diamond and Conant, but some of his most intriguing passages describe the revival and re-examination of work by such European theorists as Agambert, Nietsche, Bergson, Arendt, Foucault and Deleuze; he peels back layers of their language to reveal how Wittgenstein has influenced their thought, thereby demonstrating how the later thinkers integrated Wittgenstein's philosophy of language into their work on consciousness, cognition and even power. This serves as a model for studies of the effects of influence in philosophy. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
