A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

Immediately upon its posthumous publication in 1953, LudwigWittgenstein′s Philosophical Investigations was hailed as amasterpiece, and the ensuing years have confirmed this initialassessment. Today it is widely acknowledged to be the single mostimportant philosophical work of the twentieth century.

In this definitive new en face German–English edition,Wittgenstein experts Peter Hacker and Joachim Schulte haveincorporated significant editorial changes to earlier editions ofPhilosophical Investigations in order to reflect moreclosely Wittgenstein′s original intentions. Notable revisionsinclude the placement of Wittgenstein′s notes Randbemerkungen   into their designatedpositions in the text, some corrections to the originally publishedGerman text, and the numbering of all the remarks in what was Part2 and is now named Philosophy of Psychology AFragment. Extensive modifications and corrections have alsobeen made to G. E. M. Anscombe′s original English translation.Detailed editorial endnotes have been added to illuminate difficulttranslation decisions and to identify references and allusions inWittgenstein′s original text.
