چکیده
wittgenstein is one of the most prominent philosophers in the twentieth century; his views in both periods of his thinking have influenced many issues, including religion. his view on religion is expressed in his tractatus logico-philosophicus. in terms of the picture theory of meaning and the distinction between the meaningless and meaningful propositions, he has made an attempt to show that the religious propositions are not meaningful as such. he holds that one should keep silent with regard to such propositions; and they express meaning only in our behavior and art and practice.

متن کاملWittgenstein on Believing
The outlines of Wittgenstein’s conception of propositions can be sketched by means of the following four or five points.

This paper tries to give some substance to local holism, a picture that seems to fit Wittgenstein’s analysis of the working of language. In the first part I state the well-known paradox of semantic holism, as discussed in philosophy of language: if meaning is holistic there is no possibility to share any meaning. In the second part I present the different answers to this paradox, from atomism t...
