Identity
In Wittgenstein's Notes on Logic. Oxford, GB: Oxford University Press. pp. 204-208 (2008)
Abstract
This chapter argues that the account of logic that Wittgenstein offers in the _Notes_ is, as he plainly knew himself, incomplete. One of the issues that he knew still required further thought was how to represent the relation of identity. Russell's definition of identity, eliminating identity, and the notational problem are discussed.Author's Profile
