Does the persistence of genius depend on social obstacles? Troubles with displacing Wittgenstein on The Golden Bough

Abstract

This paper considers the debate between teams of skilled contributors versus a genius by focusing on a specific case: a team project to overturn some remarks by Wittgenstein on Frazer’s The Golden Bough. In theory, there can be a team which does this, but in actual practice, such a team seems unlikely to arise.
