Description

Book Synopsis
The series, "Wittgenstein Studies", collects together many of the major texts of recent years, making available books that have proved relevant to the study of Wittgenstein. This title is from the second collection in the series. In this study of Wittgenstein's "Tractatus", Alexander Maslow tries to clarify some of its more obscure pronouncements and interpret the philosophy underlying the work as a whole. Influenced by the logical positivism of Mortiz Schlick, and by Russell and Ramsey, the author's interpretation is that Wittgenstein's basic philosophy is a kind of Kantian phenomenology. He also examines Wittgenstein's solipsism and mysticism.
