Walter asks
Would anyone know of a source on Wittgenstein who examines why W believed that
meaning and knowledge are not possible independent of language games, and what
W specifically meant by that claim?
This may be a futile search, for that is something he did not believe;
that is, there are no grounds for attributing such a belief to him.
There's very little epistemology in Wittgenstein, unless one counts what
he says about certainty, and claims to know such-and-such, in Über
Gewissheit.
