Contact seller3-star sellerFIRST EDITION, AMERICAN ISSUE. 1 blank leaf + half title with a portrait of Wittgenstein on the verso + TP + v-vii = Contents + viii-x = Introduction + half title + 1-414 + 2 blank leaves. Octavo. First Edition, American Issue (Fr/McG: R.L.F., p. 42). "Some Remarks on Logical Form" including Ramsey's Important Review of the Trac…tatusPrinted from American sheets which note "First Printing" on the verso of the title page. There is no established priority for this US printing over the UK issue, although the fact that the two editors are American collegiates might suggest this is a first edition, first issue.The ever-protective Elizabeth Anscombe insisted on including a long footnote here making it crystal clear that Wittgenstein had completely disowned this essay. As his literary executor, she had "consented to the reprint of the essay because I suppose that it will certainly be reprinted some time, and if that is to happen there had better be a statement indicating how little value can be set upon it as information about Wittgenstein's ideas."There is, however, some value to the essay included in this book for any serious student to Wittgenstein's evolving thought. If nothing else, this 6-page essay is evidence of the dynamic variability of his philosophical thinking at this time as he struggled to resolve his growing dissatisfaction with several key elements in the Tractatus that Frank Ramsey had so severely criticized.In the Tractatus, there is a small section where Wittgenstein discusses color, stating that it is logically impossible for something to be blue while simultaneously being red. Ramsey, however, criticizes the proof offered for this statement, which did not stem from a logical formula but rather from physics. If red and blue are measured by the velocity of particles, one particle cannot be going two different speeds. But to use physics as evidence, Wittgenstein would have to prove space, time, matter, and particles as logically necessary. Or, he could rethink the color problem altogether. However, he found his attempts to do this in "Some Remarks on Logical Form" so completely unacceptable that he disowned it shortly after it was written and refused to even deliver this paper. [See our Catalog 24: Ludwig Wittgenstein: The Man and His Thought for a collection of 81 books and pamphlets by and about Wittgenstein.] Original publisher's brown cloth binding with gilt lettering on the front cover and the spine. (NOTE: we believe this book was issued without a dust jacket.) With the name of its former owner ("M. Foster") to the top of the front fly leaf. An absolutely lovely clean and bright copy.
