Hardwick Charles Sidney. Language Learning in Wittgenstein's Later Philosophy

De Gruyter Mouton, 1971. — 152 p.Since the source of the illness is a misunderstanding of language, the cure lies in coming to a clearer understanding of the functioning of language: or as Wittgenstein put it, to gain a 'clear view' of our language. In his attempt to gain a clear view of language, he investigated the many uses and misuses of language. Although his primary interest was in solving, or dissolving, various philosophical puzzles, his remarks about language have implication beyond the boundaries of his special interests.
