- W770734973 abstract "In Animal Liberation, Peter Singer remarks that some philosophers influenced by Wittgenstein have maintained that we cannot meaningfully attribute conscious states to creatures without language.! This is, as Singer observes, a hazy line of thought at best, but it is true that some philosophers occasionally maintain it. The moral implications of such a view are obviously disastrous for animals. While it is absurd to associate such an extreme and implausible position with Wittgenstein himself, some of his remarks do lend themselves to more moderate positions which place serious restrictions on animal mentality. These restrictions do have an impact, probably a negative one, on the moral standing of animals. I do not intend this paper to be a strict exegetical account of Wittgenstein's own views; his remarks on these issues are more suggestive than explicit in any case. Rather, I want to consider a few lines of thought in the Philosophical Investigations along with some of the appropriations of Wittgenstein by some of his followers on the issue of animal minds. I hope to show that their efforts to draw a clear line distinguishing animal and human mentality is misguided and that emphasis on psychological continuity between the species is evidenced in Wittgenstein's own work.
