ABSTRACT
In deploying the notions of logical form and form of life, Wittgenstein was always clear that despite occupying this fundamental position, neither could be deployed for the purpose of making philosophical pronouncements about 'what there is' or 'what there must be'. Both remain outside the scope of the explicable, sayable or articulable, and in no circumstances could the limits they embody be stated or positively charted. Wittgenstein's central insight, early and late, is that there can be no transcendental setting of limits to sense in advance, or once and for all. One can see a direct reference to Wittgenstein's early view, in a variant of the famous remark in the Investigations in which one may tell that forms of life are given. As a precursor, it is important to clarify what form his foundationalism took, what it amounts to and what allegedly makes it unique.
