Same Remarks Wittgenstein’s Concept of Philosophy

Maciej Przemysław Świerczyński

Abstract

The main aim of this article is to dismantle some of the so-called philosophical misunderstandings gathered around, very specific indeed, Wittgenstein's Concept of Philosophy and Philosophical Activity. This paper was especially designed for a Polish academic philosophers, both students of philosophy and philosophy teachers - that is to say: the target is „Polish Ground” where Wittgenstein's Philosophy is up to day almost completely unknown or if studied by a chance, then it is tremendously misunderstood, and generally can be treated as a factor causing a kind of a Panic fear among Academics, who are afraid of loosing their jobs because of Wittgenstein's attack on meaningless metaphysics or his attempt in elimination of Ethics from the realm of Philosophy. It is therefore of a little value or even completely of no use for Western European, British or American philosophers, for many years already familiar with and fully accustomed to the initially shocking Wittgenstein's ideas. Elaborating a unique Concept of Philosophy offered by an undoubtedly ingenious philosopher from Vienna, I'm trying to show some real advantages of his line of thought spreading from the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus and continued and developed in Philosophical Investigations, as well as illuminate a deep maturity of the presented Concept.
