Updated edition of this original critique of Wittgenstein's analogy between language and games. Rush Rhees was one of Wittgenstein's literary executors and closest friends, as well as being an outstanding philosopher in his own right. D.Z. Phillips is Director of the Rush Rhees Archive and the Associated Centre for Wittgensteinian Studies. Constitutes a major contribution to Wittgenstein scholarship and to philosophical debates about the possibility of discourse. The second edition includes as a preface Rhees' article, 'The Fundamental Problems of Philosophy', first published in 1994. It also includes as a second appendix some of Rhees' reflections of Wittgenstein, his teacher.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such can
receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit
organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be offset against
your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more
information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any gift

value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment
to check if your company operates such a program.
