Myth



"(...) it seems to be a singular fact about Wittgenstein -- something that genuinely sets him off from most other philosophers -- that it is most biographically plausible that even when we understand what he is saying, we may be radically in the dark about why he says it, why he finds it significant, what leads him to it"
(John Holbo)

I like, I read and I teach Wittgenstein. It´s important even for beginners to understand the difference between the conditions of truth (TL-P) and the "games" of language use proposed in PI. But that "biographic darkness" seems to me a little bit mistified.
