Wittgenstein's reasonable man and interactionist approaches to reason

Original language description

My paper focuses on the concept of reason and “the reasonable man” in Wittgenstein’s On Certainty. I argue that Wittgenstein’s remarks on the reasonable man create at least two questions: whether reason is a substantial concept and whether we must accept relativism about reason. I show that an interactionist understanding of reason, developed among others by authors influenced by Wittgenstein, can help circumvent these two problems. I argue that an interactionist approach to reason can be vaguely discerned in some remarks in On Certainty, but is intermingled with a more traditional understanding of reason.
