Original Title:
Wittgenstein και θρησκευτική πίστη: όψεις της θρησκευτικής γλώσσας
Translated title:
Wittgenstein and religious belief: aspects of religious language
Summary:
In this paper, an attempt is made towards a -by no means exhaustive of the totality of the explicitly detectable or even just potentially interpretable as such manifestations of the elaboration of the phenomenon of religious language as well as that of the interlocutory unfolding of religious faith as a particular form of producing (or revealing) meaning- reconstitution of Wittgenstein's argumentation as it is directly or indirectly carried out in his later period and especially in the 'Lectures on religious belief'. In addition, an effort is made, through the reconstruction of the aspects of religious language illuminated by Wittgenstein, to highlight both the inherent peculiarities that characterize his reflection on religiosity and the possibly problematic nature of the limits he sets on it.
