Wittgenstein

Prof. Potrc je imel 1. marca 2012 predavanje za podiplomce na temo Wittgenstein. Siroko je predstavil svoja srecanja z omenjeno filozofijo. Med drugim je skusal ovreci argument privatnega jezika, kot mu ga je poredstavil Prof. Zalec. Trdil je, da je zavrnitev privatnega jezika neumestna,  ce upostevamo, da moj hipoteticni dvojnik mozgan v kadi prebiva v popolnem izkustvenem svetu, da je torej v polozaju tubiti biti-v-svetu, skupaj z normativnimi obveznostmi in pritiski. Prvo Wittgensteinovo fazo je nato povezal s svojim dojemanjem resnice kot neposrednega ujemanja, pozno Wittgensteinovo obdobje pa s svojim pojmovanjem resnice kot posrednega ujemanja.
