About this video
Ludwig Wittgenstein is among the philosophers whose thought has had a profound impact on the philosophy of language, religion, ethics, and our understanding of human life. In this series of sessions, Soroush Dabbagh, hosted by Omid Keshmiri, explores the relationship between Wittgenstein's thought and the question of the meaning of life.
The focus of the discussion is how the problem of meaning can be understood from Wittgenstein's perspective; a philosopher whose attention to language, the use of words, forms of life, and the limits of expression opened a new way of thinking about existential and religious questions.
The importance of this conversation lies in its examination of the meaning of life not merely as an abstract question, but in connection with language, lived experience, ethics, and the human way of being in the world. This video is suitable for those interested in analytic philosophy, philosophy of religion, Wittgenstein, and the meaning of life.
