A survey of Parikh's philosophical appropriations of Wittgensteinian themes, placed into historical context against the backdrop of Turing's famous paper [104], "On computable numbers, with an application to the Entscheidungsproblem" and its connections with Wittgenstein and the foundations of mathematics. Characterizing Parikh's contributions to the interaction between logic and philosophy at its foundations, we argue that his work gives the lie to recent presentations of Wittgenstein's so-called metaphilosophy (e.g., [38]) as a kind of "dead end" quietism. From early work on the idea of a feasibility in arithmetic ([54]) and vagueness ([56]) to his more recent program in social software ([63]), Parikh's work encompasses and touches upon many foundational issues in epistemology, philosophy of logic, philosophy of language, and value theory. But it expresses a unified philosophical point of view. In his most recent work, questions about public and private languages, opportunity spaces, strategic voting, non-monotonic inference and knowledge in literature provide a remarkable series of suggestions about how to present issues of fundamental importance in theoretical computer science as serious philosophical issues.
