It is frequently claimed that Socrates said, “All I know is that I know nothing.”
 
Wittgenstein and Contextualism
Jason Bridges
"This is a copy of a talk in which I argue against semantic contextualism, focusing on the views of Charles Travis and Hilary Putnam. (The name of the talk is inapt, as I say almost nothing about Wittgenstein.) My central complaint is that contextualism does not square with important features of our ordinary linguistic practices. These features taken together suggest that the truth-conditions of our utterances ordinarily transcend standards of application and use embedded in local conversational contexts. I connect this to the question of the objectivity of content, and begin to delineate an anti-contextualist conception of the relationship between language and use, in which the idea of a natural language assumes a central role."
