LOIOLA, Eder Marques. Philosophy, language and education: some remarks from a Wittgensteinian perspective. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2020, vol.34, n.72, pp.1303-1338.  Epub 03-Fev-2022. ISSN 1982-596X.  https://doi.org/10.14393/revedfil.v34n72a2020-56590.

Acordding to some remarks from late Wittgenstein, the article stresses the link between problems present at the origin of the philosophical tradition and certain images (Bilder) of linguistic meaning. In particular, we focus on the relation between language and identity of Being, one matter upon wich Parmenides, Sophists and Plato disagreed, and decisive for the tradition of philosophy. Assuming the educational relevance of this ancient philosophical debates, we will also seek to highlight the role reserved for language learning - or a certain use of language - in the form of philosophical knowledge. We will finally discuss how philosophy can be understood as a formative activity of conceptual elucidation by means of language, an exercise that attempts to refer Wittgenstein's late work to the tradition of thought that, directly or indirectly, represented the bewitchment against which the philosopher struggled throughout his life.
