Abstract
Writing in 1946-7, Ludwig Wittgenstein made some observations on conceptions of neural representations and correlations between thought processes and brain processes that presage twenty-first century debates. They are highly controversial. They have occasioned multiple conflicting interpretations and misunderstandings. Although written more than seventy-five years ago, they retain their freshness and forcefulness. If correct they undermine some of the deepest preconceptions of contemporary cognitive neuroscience and neurology, as well as experimental psychology.
