The contents map the argumentation from the Augustinian conception of language and Wittgenstein’s early commitments through the role of private language arguments. It develops sections on private ownership, the traditional picture, private ostensive definition, and the limits of inner mental interpretation, culminating in discussions of minds, machines, avowals, and descriptions of subjective experience.
