Ludwig Wittgenstein: Half-Truths and One-and-a-Half-Truths

Meer over het boek

The exploration of Wittgenstein's philosophy reveals a significant disconnect between his original ideas and their interpretations by scholars. The author reflects on this gap, noting Wittgenstein's impatience in articulating his thoughts, often leaving them underexplained or referenced only briefly. The first essay addresses this issue, highlighting how Wittgenstein's method of presenting his problems and solutions, particularly in works like The Brown Book, complicates the understanding of his philosophy. This volume seeks to bridge that understanding and clarify his intentions.
