Resumo

This paper presents a critique of Baker’s interpretation of Wittgenstein’s method. First, there is a brief presentation of his view according to which the philosophical method is a therapy of the subject. This is followed by the arguments against his main assumptions and finally by an exegetical analysis of Wittgenstein’s uses of ‘psychoanalysis’. The general aim is to explain why Baker’s view is not convincing.
