Description:

Consider the word, "game" ... What is a game and what is not a game? To this question, Wittgenstein makes another breakthrough. Family resemblance. This is overcoming of logical rigor, abandonment of metaphysical vagueness, and a triumphant win of common sense. This is part 7 of 9 Part 1: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=quxB0y9wquk Part 2: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=wpxzcFe8rOg Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2FO7rUHe5I Part 4: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CCctdVy3mo Part 5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m90iwIDHoLg Part 6: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUR9lZRYbqE

Very interesting video. I'm in the process of reviewing Wittgenstein's views on ethics. So many superficial philosophers think that because he called all ethical systems "nonsense", he advocated absolute moral licence or unrestrained ethical relativism That is NOT a valid perception of his intent... Another good video. Thanks!

im sorry, but describing Wittgenstein as "poetic" is really stretching the meaning of the word.
