I have opened up this thread for now, although it is not strictly speaking active. I wanted to share some intitial thoughts after reading the introduction and some of chapter 2, the introduction is chapter 1 by the way.
The book is very easy to read, I think it is by far the simplest book on Wittgenstein (as he has been the main philosopher to be discussed up to this point) I have read so far.
It is painstaking in detail when it comes to comparing Saussure’s structural linguistics to Wittgenstein. I like how it clarifies the embodiment of rules in language, which is interesting.
Anyway, that’s a very brief skimming through, first impressions type post. I will not be posting the PDF, as I don’t have it, any readings from this book will have to come from a physical copy, or your own PDF if you have it I am afraid.
Based on what I have read of the reviews, may I suggest we stick with the other book on Derrida before moving on to this, I’d like you to have some grounding in Derrida first

Yeah, it was just a thumbing through. Looks good though.
