Language, rule and behavior in the second Wittgenstein

In the II Wittgenstein, logic is no longer resolved in the relation between language and thought, starting to rely on linguistic practice itself. The appeal to psychical occurrences in logical considerations remains irrelevant, since these are now grammatical considerations: it concerns to the rules that presides language. These rules are independent of the thought, as something underlying language. In this sense, each grammatical context, that is, each language-game, is a prototype for a way of thinking. When considering that linguistic practice itself carries out logic, behavior takes on a leading role: both primitive, pre-linguistic behavior, which constitutes the bedrock of grammar and the means of presentation of mental; as well as the behavior, which gains symbolic status, starts to function as utterances of mental in language games.
