Wittgenstein a životní formy
Wittgenstein and the Forms of Life

Summary/Abstract: The author tries to examine an opus of late Wittgenstein in some aspects. 1) The text tries to show that common critics of a meaning „as an use" have not met with the intentions of Wittgenstein's work. There are two conceptions of a meaning in his Philosophical Investigations. The second conception is superior to the first one - a meaning „as an use" - and the first one loses its sense if we tear it off i t s ' social-language background. 2) From this point of view the text tries to defend a late Wittgenstein's method that is connected with his not traditional way of philosophizing. This way is often wrongly accounted as „a formless heaping up of ambiguouse suggetions". 3) One may understand the late Wittgenstein's philosophy as „epistemological" critic. The author reveales a potention of this critic as he exposes confusing presuppositions of TIL. 4) In the final part of the article author tries to introduce Wittgenstein as a philosopher of a man's liberation from structures of thinking and habits which form people apart their counsciousness.
