About this title

Synopsis:

Long awaited by the scholarly community, Wittgenstein's so-called "Big Typescript" (von Wright Catalog number TS 213) is presented here in an en face English-German scholar's edition. This book presents scholar's edition of important material from 1933, Wittgenstein's first efforts to set out his new thoughts after the publication of the "Tractatus Logico Philosophicus". It includes indications to help the reader identify Wittgenstein's numerous corrections, additions, deletions, alternative words and phrasings, suggestions for moves within the text, and marginal comments.

Review:

"Experts used to regard an edition of this much revised typescript as well-nigh impossible. Now they have been proved wrong: Aue and Luckhardt have miraculously succeeded in producing a scrupulously accurate and at the same time highly readable edition and translation of this previously missing link between Wittgenstein's Tractatus and his later writings." Joachim Schulte, Universit�t Bielefeld

"Here is Wittgenstein's most important unpublished typescript, expertly edited and superbly translated. Required reading for anyone interested in what Wittgenstein wrote after the Tractatus and before the Philosophical Investigations." David Stern, University of Iowa
