Rules and privacy: remarks on philosophical investigations §202

Abstract

http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/1677-2954.2016v15n2p317I first distinguish issues about rules and issues about language in Wittgenstein. I then I distinguish private and private rules and argue that there can be private rules because norms of reasoning are private rules. I suggest that Wittgenstein may have equated rules with public rules. I end with reflections on private language.
