The Two Philosophies of Wittgenstein   BBC 1976

Ludwig Wittgenstein developed two linguistic philosophies:

one studies language as a way of giving picture-meanings to objects; the other studies the ways language is used to create different impressions.

In this program, author Bryan Magee and Oxford professor Anthony Quinton dissect the two philosophies, and discuss their influence on anthropology and sociology.
