Review: Wittgenstein and the End of Philosophy: Neither Theory nor Therapy

Identifying the end of a science is one of the criteria for knowing that science. This article represents Wittgenstein’s view on the end of philosophy in Hutto’s words. Hutto begins his argument with the issue of ‘logic’. Afterwards, he challenges the former interpretations on this issue: First, a theoretical interpretation - which smacked of metaphysics - is rejected and then, a therapeutic interpretation - upon which many Tractatusremarks are meaningless - is denied. In the end, Hutto’s new interpretation, which is based on descriptionand activism in daily life, is presented. This article discusses that there are also criticisms on Hutto’ new interpretation and a close scrutiny on the components of this new interpretation is required.
