Ludwig Wittgenstein is one of the greatest philosophers of the 20th century, working in the fields of logic, philosophy of mind and language as a form of reason. Wittgenstein believed that language cannot be understood outside the context in which it is used: as the context changes, so does the semantic meaning of the language. This all resembles a “language game,” a set of methods rather than a theory, but Wittgenstein believed that this is the only way a discipline could look like, constantly forced to adapt to its changing subject matter. Jean-François Lyotard, a French postmodernist philosopher, gives a different interpretation of “linguistic games" by Wittgenstein. According to Lyotard, “language games” should mean individual systems in which independent rules for their activity are produced. In the postmodern era, says Lyotard, previous large-scale philosophical doctrines (metanarratives) cause skepticism. We understand the incompatibility of our aspirations, beliefs and desires, and for this reason postmodernity is characterized by a large number of micro-narratives. The book presents the main works of Wittgenstein and Lyotard on this topic.
