Synopsis

Stern argues that Wittgenstein's views are often much simpler (and more radical) than we have been led to believe. Drawing on ten years of research on the unpublished Wittgenstein papers, Stern investigates what motivated Wittgenstein's philosophical writing and casts new light on the Tractatus and Philosophical Investigations, revealing aspects of Wittgenstein's thought that have been heretofore neglected.

A propos du livre

Revue de presse

This book holds out some exciting prospets ... presents in translation a large number of remarks from unpublished manuscripts and typescripts. (Gordon Baker, Philosophical Quarterly)

this is not yet another book on Wittgenstein. It is a commentary on the Wittgensteinian texts, pre-early, early, middle and later, following a conceptual framework which makes coherent sense of all of them without a programmatic presupposition which might coerce any of them. (Anat Biletzki and Anat Matar, Pragmatics and Cognition)

In the course of tracing the development of Wittgenstein's views on the nature of language and meaning, Stern offers clear and succinct discussions of a variety of difficult areas of Wittgenstein's thought. (Mind)
