»Worldviews« are often criticised, the term »Weltanschauung« has become suspect. This analysis is true in many respects, and yet the concept of »worldviews« is associated with more than ideology. On the one hand, the essay discusses different simple uses of the term »Weltanschauung«, which are nevertheless philosophically of high interest. On the other hand, it asks what it means for understanding and cognition when worldviews are missing. It is precisely this circumstance that is referred to as »worldview-blindness« and discussed with reference to Wittgenstein. Worldview-blind is someone who is no longer able to perceive meaning in things themselves.
