Abstract / Description of output
We offer an overview of what we take to be the main themes in Annalisa Coliva's book, Moore and Wittgenstein: Scepticism, Certainty and Common Sense. In particular, we focus on the 'framework reading' that she offers of Wittgenstein's On Certainty and its anti-sceptical implications. While broadly agreeing with the proposal that Coliva puts forward on this score, we do suggest one important supplementation to the view-viz., that this way of dealing with radical scepticism needs to be augmented with an account of the meta-sceptical problem which this proposal generates, which we call epistemic vertigo.
