Santayana used to insist that those who are ignorant of the history of
thought are doomed to re-enact it. To this we can add a corollary: that
those who are ignorant of the context of ideas are doom- ed to
misunderstand them. In a few self-contained fields such as pure
mathematics, concepts and conceptual systems can perhaps be de- tached
from their historico-cultural situations; so that (for instance) a
self-taught Ramanujan, living alone in India, mastered number- theory
to a point at which he could make major contributions to European
mathematics. But elsewhere the situation is different - and, in
philosophy, inevitably so. For philosophical ideas and problems
confront us like geological specimens in situ; and, in the act of
prising them free from their historical and cultural locations, we can
too easily forget about the matrix in which they took shape, and end by
impossing on them a sculptural form of our own making. Something of
this kind has happened in the case of Ludwig Wittgen- stein. For his
philosophical work has commonly been seen as an episode in the
development, either of mathematicallogic, or oftwentieth-century
British philosophy. His associations with Frege and Russell, Moore and
Waismann, have over-shadowed everything else in his cultural origins
and intellectual concerns.
