Compare The Textual Genesis of Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations by Nuno Venturinha, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Sixty years after its first edition, there is an increasing consensus among scholars that the work posthumously published asPhilosophical Investigationsrepresents something that is far from a complete picture of Wittgenstein's second book project. G. H. von Wright's seminal research on theNachlasswas an important contribution in this direction, showing that the Wittgenstein papers can reveal much more than the source of specific remarks. This book specifically explores Wittgenstein'sPhilosophicalInvestigationsfrom the different angles of its originary conceptions, including the mathematical texts, shedding new light on fundamental issues in twentieth century and contemporary philosophy. Leading authorities in the field focus on newly published or hitherto unpublished sources for the interpretation of Wittgenstein's later work and a Wittgenstein typescript, translated for the first time into English, is included as an appendix. | The Textual Genesis of Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations by Nuno Venturinha, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
