Ludwig Wittgenstein left an indelible footprint on contemporary philosophy. His influence has been rich and wide‑ranging. However, the interpretation or understanding of Wittgenstein’s views – both his early views and his late views – is exceedingly fraught and contentious. How was Wittgenstein’s thought received by his contemporaries, such as Frank Ramsey, Bertrand Russell, Gilbert Ryle, and Elizabeth Anscombe? How did it shape the philosophical outlook of later philosophers, such as Michael Dummett, Willard Quine, Hilary Putnam, and Richard Rorty? And how does it continue to influence contemporary philosophers such as Crispin Wright, Simon Blackburn, Penelope Maddy, and Charles Travis?The Routledge Handbook of Wittgenstein and Other Philosophers: Part 1 examines the impact and influence of Wittgenstein’s thought on some of the most significant philosophers of the twentieth and early twenty‑first centuries. Comprising forty chapters by astellar line‑up of contributors, Part 1 considers Wittgenstein’s impact on the forementioned figures as well as many more, with chapters for example on Wilfrid Sellars, Noam Chomsky, Thomas Nagel, Cora Diamond, Saul Kripke, Robert Brandom, and John McDowell.

How has Wittgenstein's thought been received by contemporary philosophers? How has it shaped the thinking of some of the leading philosophers of the post-war period?The Routledge Handbook of Wittgenstein and Other Philosophers: Part 2 examines the impact and influence of Wittgenstein's thought on some of the most significant philosophers of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, as well as major thinkers from related disciplines such as economics and politics. Comprising forty-eight chapters by a stellar line-up of contributors, Part 2 considers Wittgenstein's impact on philosophers including Susan Stebbing, Alan Turing, G.E. Moore, Carl Hempel, Iris Murdoch, B.F. Skinner, Friedrich Hayek, Thomas Khun, Philippa Foot, Richard Wollheim, and Jürgen Habermas.

This book offers a comprehensive examination of Kripke’s influential reading of the later Wittgenstein presented in Wittgenstein on Rules and Private Language (1982), together with the principal objections raised by more than twenty philosophers. It introduces the key ideas that frame Kripke’s sceptical challenge, then analyses the main components of the ‘sceptical argument’ Kripke attributes to Wittgenstein and elucidates the ‘sceptical solution’ he takes Wittgenstein to propose as an alternative to classical realism. It also explores how both the sceptical problem and an additional ‘special problem’ arise in the attributing sensations and in traditional approaches to the problem of other minds. The concluding chapters survey the major responses to Kripke’s interpretation developed by philosophers working on the topic since the 1980s, including John McDowell, Simon Blackburn, Gordon Baker, Peter Hacker, Colin McGinn, Crispin Wright, Paul Boghossian, Philip Pettit, Barry Stroud, Hannah Ginsborg, Alexander Miller, George Wilson, Scott Soames, Noam Chomsky, Paul Horwich, as well as Norman Malcolm, Donald Davidson, David Lewis, Christopher Peacocke, Jerry Fodor, David Stern, Alex Byrne, Ruth Millikan, Hilary Putnam and John Searle.
