The themes are timely and deep: radical self-criticism as method; inevitable tensions facing phenomenological attentiveness to form in logic, psychology, and the 'ordinary'; philosophy’s relation to literature, poetry, theatre and music; mysticism, pessimism, and certainty. * Juliet Floyd, Professor of Philosophy, Boston University, USA *\u003cbr\u003eAnalytic purists, with whom he has been associated, will be sceptical about drawing connections between Wittgenstein's philosophy – and 20th century philosophy in general – and the artistic modernism of his time. From diverse perspectives informed both by philosophy and the arts, contributors to this volume refute that scepticism. They elucidate the tantalising relationships that arise from Wittgenstein's radical self-criticism, his concern with language and the arts, and the intensified development of the Enlightenment project that modernism represents. * Andy Hamilton, Professor of Philosophy, Durham University, UK *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Contributors Abbreviations Series Preface \u003cb\u003e Introduction\u003c\/b\u003e: Giving the Viewer an Idea of the Landscape \u003ci\u003eAnat Matar (Tel Aviv University, Israel)\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cb\u003ePart I – Conceptualizing Wittgenstein\u003c\/b\u003e 1.
