Description:

Insight and Illusion's central theme concerns Wittgenstein's metaphysics of experience - self consciousness, knowledge of other minds, and knowledge of objects. Hacker deals with Wittgenstein's general conception of philosophy and metaphysics, which illuminates, and is illuminated by, the examination of his metaphysics of experience. Hacker stresses the Kantian affinities of Wittgenstein's philosophy - both on his earlier and later work. And these subjects are assessed against the backcloth pf Wittgenstein's semantic theories, as these develop from the strict realism of the Tractatus to the constructivist-inspired conventionalism of the Investigations.
