Proposing that there is a network of systematically connected insights to be found in Wittgenstein's later writings that is of epistemological relevance, renowned philosopher and Wittgenstein scholar Hans Julius Schneider attempts to free Wittgenstein from his reputation as an unsystematic thinker with nothing to offer but \"therapy\" for individual cases of philosophical confusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSchneider argues his points by first summarizing Gottlob Frege's philosophy of language, then engaging in close readings of a variety of Wittgenstein's texts to explore what he really has to say about \"kinds of words\" and \"parts of speech.\" Subsequent chapters explore and answer questions centered on the concepts of \"imagination\" and \"projection\"; discuss Wittgenstein's struggle with his older models of linguistic complexity; and spell out the consequences for the project of a \"theory of meaning.\" Innovative and original, \u003ci\u003eWittgenstein's Later Theory of Meaning\u003c\/i\u003e represents an important and invaluable contribution to Wittgenstein scholarship that offers rich new insights into one of the 20th century's most influential philosophers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHans Julius Schneider\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at the University of Potsdam.
