9 Preface This book is born out of the conviction both that Wittgenstein's writing on magic has been sadly neglected by philosophers of religion, and that, even where it is discussed, the conclusions drawn about his views are not faithful to what he has written. Wittgenstein, Frazer and Religion is my attempt to correct this neglect and these misunderstandings. Some of the material included in this book has previously appeared in article form. A version of Chapter 3 was first published as 'Wittgenstein and Expressive Theories of Religion' in International Journal for Philosophy of Religion (vol. 40 no.1, pp ), and this is reproduced with kind permission from Kluwer Academic Publishers. Again, elements of Chapter 7 first appeared as 'D. Z. Phillips, Wittgenstein and Religion' in Religious Studies (vol. 31 no. 1, pp ), and I am grateful to the editors and to Cambridge University Press for granting me permission to reproduce that material here. I have quoted from three published versions of Wittgenstein' s Remarks on Frazer's Golden Bough: the original German text (published in Synthese in 1967); the A. C. Miles translation (published originally in The Human World in 1971, and subsequently by the Brynmill Press in 1979); and John Beversluis' translation (published in Wittgenstein: Sources and Perspectives (Harvester Press, 1979)). References to these, as to all other works, are within the text, citing author's name and date of edition used. This information is amplified in the bibliography. Notes can be found at the end of the book. At numerous places in this book, reference is made to Paul Ernst's 'Nachwort' to his 1910 edition of Grimm's Kinder-und Hausniirchen. Ernst's essay influenced Wittgenstein greatly, yet it is notoriously inaccessible. (Hence Rush Rhees' remark in the introduction to the first English translation of the Remarks on Frazer: 'I have not found a copy of that preface or that edition of the ix
10 X Contents Miirchen'.) Forunately, I managed to track down a copy of Ernst's essay, the significance of which is attested to in the pages of this book. All quotations from this essay are from the translation which was expertly prepared for me by Dr Vanessa Davies of King's College, London. Page references refer to the original German edition. I would like to acknowledge my great debt to Vanessa for her patient work in preparing the translation and for her many interesting reflections on Ernst's argument. In this connection I would also like to thank Dr Peter Hacker, Mr Igor Kuusik and Mr Brian McGuinness for their helpful contributions. Of those who read or commented on various parts of this book, I would like to thank Dr Beverley Clack, Dr Grace Jantzen, Dr Felicity McCutcheon and Professor Drago Ocvirk, while Professor Paul Helm and Fergus Kerr OP made invaluable comments during their examination of the PhD thesis on which this book is based. Special thanks go to Professor Frank Cioffi for his countless enlightening remarks and encouragement, and, particularly, to Mr Peter Byrne, who supervised the research which ultimately became this book. I owe Peter an enormous debt for his patience, his characteristically astute criticisms, and his friendship. My interest in the subject was sustained by teaching courses on Wittgenstein at Heythrop College London, Westminster College Oxford, and St Clare's Oxford. Thanks go to the following students both for their willingness to discuss at length Wittgenstein's thoughts on magic, and for the subsequent much-cherished gift of their friendship: Jonathan Herapath, Patrycja Kaszynska, Carol Lewis, Sam Norton, Helen O'Sullivan and Ciran Stapleton. For their precious moral support I would like to thank my parents, Alan and Ann Clack, my grandfather Ron Denman, my great-aunt Win Moxham, and many friends, in particular, Phil Baston, Felix and Emma Clayton, Leonardo Dasso, Steve Eyre, Claire Fitzpatrick, Helen Gresty, Robert Lindsey, Michael Mosley, David Parry, Bryan and Margaret Stringer, Pete Thompson, Ed White and Rainy Whiting. Highest thanks to Adam Clayton for being a port in a heavy storm. Finally, for her support, advice, criticisms and much else, more than gratitude is due to Celia, to whom this book is dedicated.
