Description
G.H. von Wright, a pupil and personal friend of Ludwig Wiggenstein and now one of the trustees of his literary estate, has here collected eight studies of Wittgenstein's life and writings. The studies record the reliable facts of Wittgenstein's life, and retrieve all the information which is still available relating to the chronology and composition of his writings. Avoiding interpretation, Professor von Wright concentrates on providing source material which will be of permanent value to anyone studying Wittgenstein. His work on the origins and development of the two great creations of the philosophical genius - the Tractatus' and Philosophical Investigations' - will be of abiding interest to scholars and students who seek to understand the thinking of one of the most fertile and original minds in the history of philosophy.
