The resolution of the ambivalence in the third phase in favor of a "methodological intersubjectivism" — and the remaining problem of a dialectical mediation between intersubjective "understanding&a
Karl-Otto Apel
pp. 35-57
The third phase of Analytical Philosophy, which is considered by its advocates as the real revolution in philosophy58, was decisively influenced by the thoughts of the later Wittgenstein, which were first recorded by students from his lectures in 1933–35 in the so-called Blue and Brown Books, published in 1958. A short perusal of these notes as well as the Philosophical Investigations, which were published posthumously in 1953, suffices to confirm our expectation that Analytical Philosophy, having forsaken the idea of a universal language, had to turn to the hermeneutics of "meaning intentions", i.e. to the problems of traditional Geisteswissenschaften.
