[edit] Wittgenstein
Ludwig Wittgenstein can be seen as anti-foundationalist, particularly in his Philosophical Investigations. I don't want to push an interpretation by writing anything, but it may be worthwhile look for some people already sying this. I've added this article to my watchlist, and I will come back to it when I have time, to flesh out why Nietzsche is an anti-foundationalist and maybe add stuff on Wittgenstein.
Also, looking at the article, the section on Neurath's boat is really vague and doesn't strike me as even being relevant.--Tedpennings 09:10, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
Regarding the above comment: Later parts of Philosophical Investigations and On Certainty would be considered far nearer foundationalist thinking. In reality, Wittgenstein wasn't technically either, once his whole corpus has been taken into account. I'd be wary of referencing him as has been done here. -- SM 13:50, 12 Jan 2010 (GMT)
[edit] Atheism
There ought to be research on links between Anti-foundationalism and Atheism. Many anti-foundationalists, such as Nietszche, were apparently atheists. ADM (talk) 12:14, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
