GIRALDO GIRALDO, Ana María. Autobiografía e histrionismo: una Imagen del autoconocimiento en la obra tardía de Wittgenstein. Eidos [online]. 2014, n.21, pp.147-159. ISSN 1692-8857.

The aim of this paper is to explore the phenomenon of self-knowledge from a Wittgensteinian perspective, subject of great interest to the philosophy of psycholo-gy. In Wittgenstein's later work, much of his thoughts are focused on the analysis of phenomenological states expressions and propositional attitudes. From the analysis of self-ascriptions of mental states, many philosophers have tried to build an image of what would be the self-knowledge for the Austrian philosopher in his later writings.In this article we show (1) that Wittgenstein has a dual position in regard to the meaning of psychological verbs in the first person. On some occasions would use expressive in other, informational use. And (2) that none of the three attempts that we will show is successful, although all three appear to find textual support in the work of Austrian philosopher.

Keywords : Wittgenstein; self-knowledge; first person authority; autobiography; histrionics.
