Linguistic Analysis and Metaphysics
Axel Hutter
Axel Hutter shows, in an accessible and original way, that the ‘metaphysical’ is illustrating how language and metaphysics are self-evident facts, existing right there in front of our eyes. But it is precisely because they seem so self-evident (and thus remain hidden) that philosophy is necessary.
Axel Hutter’s book is an unusually accessible and exciting introduction to modern philosophy. It begins with the so-called linguistic analytic turn associated mainly with Frege and Wittgenstein. Hutter shows how this modern turn towards language in philosophy gives rise to a new approach to metaphysics. His introduction convincingly promotes a way of thinking which has had a decisive influence on modern philosophy.
