Sommario/riassunto

Wittgenstein's grammar term is strangely broad, meaning that it not only contains the rules for the arrangement of words, but ultimately everything that adds to the meaning of a term. Wittgenstein sees grammar as equally related to the arbitrary and the non-arbitrary, whereby the arbitrariness is limited by human nature and social practices. This book examines precisely these limits with the means and results of the latest linguistic and cognitive research in order to examine Wittgenstein's arguments, which at first seem quite speculative, for the possibility of alternative grammars in areas such as colors, arithmetic and others.
