文摘This paper tries to explain why the transcendental problem that obsessed the great Western philosophers, such as Kant and Husserl, should be, according to Wittgenstein, conceived as a matter how to understand a process of reasoning in which a conclusion follows necessarily from the stated regulations. Once these regulations regarded as a priori categories by Kant, or as eidos and eidetic relations by Husserl, are demonstrated to be no more than the language usages or rules of language-games which are related to our life-forms, Kant’s transcendental idealism and Husserl’s transcendental phenomenology no longer have a leg to stand on.
