Ludwig Wittgenstein is one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. Logico-Philosophical Treatise, perhaps the most widely known of his work, still remains one of the most mysterious and contradictory philosophical books. With his deep insights into the nature of language, reality and ideas about it, this book inspired not only philosophers, but often writers, musicians, filmmakers.
"Wittgenstein and Tractatus" is an introduction:
- in the facts of Wittgenstein's life; here describes the biographical background of the writing of the Treatise
- in the ideas and text of the Treatise
- in the importance that Wigenshtein's work has today.
Such a necessary guide, the Guide to the Treatise - this is an obligatory reading for those who undertake the comprehension of Wittgenstein, are interested in the philosophy of language and metaphysics.
