Description - Wittgenstein, Culture and the Arts by Richard Allen

Wittgenstein, Culture and the Arts is the first full exploration of the profound implications of Wittgenstein's philosophy for understanding the arts and cultural criticism. This stellar collection of original essays by philosophers and critics of the arts addresses the main philosophical topics of importance in the study of the arts and culture, such as humanism, criticism, the philosophy of language, psychology, painting, performance, film and ethics. The essays exemplify Wittgenstein's method of conceptual investigation and highlight his notion of philosophy as a cure. This will be an invaluable book to all those interested in Wittgenstein studies and the arts.
