Sažetak
We present a solution to the difference between Wittgenstein’s use of the model in TLP and modeling in PI, RFM, and OC by means of the analysis of the difference in word choices and concept descriptions of the phenomena in his remarks. The method we used is conceptual analysis of Wittgenstein’s treatments of scientific models and modeling. Additionally, textual analysis and textual comparison are used in the study of his major remarks on the subject. Given the discovered difference between model and modeling and the continuity of dependence of both concepts on the concept of picture, with the difference between the picture and picturing implied, we suggest that Wittgenstein tried to incorporate his old concept of the model into the new concept of modeling. The explicated difference and incorporation contribute to the clarification of the issues of Wittgenstein’s indirect and direct influence on the philosophy of science (especially on Toulmin, Hanson, Kuhn and Feyerabend).
