摘要
This article presents Wittgenstein's discussion and criticism concerning two presuppositions related to the subjective experience: on the one hand the notion that a subject has privileged access to what is internal to him, which unfolds into the idea of private possession of experience, where it is understood as internal objects that are not possessed and accessed by the own subject and, on the other hand, the notion of epistemic privacy of experience, according to which only the own subject can be aware of his experiences, whereas another subject could only make suppositions about these experiences. According to Wittgenstein, these notions result from some confusion between two distinct language games: the descriptions language game and the exteriorizations language games. Thus, the problem solution goes from the clarification of the use of relative terms to the subjective experiences in the language games they are part of.
