Question

This is the first word in the title of a book that claims all propositions are analytic, strongly verifiable, or weakly verifiable. A namesake hypothesis by Jerry Fodor posits that mental representations have the structure of these systems. The study of these systems names a “turn” that often marks the start of (20[1])analytic philosophy. These systems (20[3])are governed by a set of (20[1])(*) family (10[2])resemblances (10[2])according (10[1])to a book (10[3])that diverges (10[1])from its (10[1])author’s earlier picture theory. (10[4])These systems, which appear with “truth” and “logic” in the title of a book by A. J. Ayer, cannot be private according to Philosophical (10[1])Investigations. (10[4])For 10 points, Ludwig Wittgenstein theorized (10[1])games surrounding what (10[1])systems (10[2])of verbal (10[1])communication? (10[2])■END■ (10[5])
