Riassunto

Peter Finch's translation of Wittgenstein's remarks on culture and value presents all entries chronologically, with the German text alongside the English and a subject index for reference.

"It was Wittgenstein's habit to record his thoughts in sequences of more or less closely related 'remarks' which he kept in notebooks throughout his life. The editor of this collection has gone through these notebooks in order to select those 'remarks' which deal with Wittgenstein's views abou the less technical issues in his philosophy. So here we have Wittgenstein's thoughts about religion, music, architecture, the nature of philosophy, the spirit of our times, genius, being Jewish, and so on. The work is a masterpiece by a mastermind."--Leonard Linsky

Su questo libro

Product Description:

Culture and value are the essential concerns of these remarks, hitherto available only in German as "Vermischte Bemerkungen." Although the passages date from various periods of Wittgenstein's life, over half were written during his later years, and this edition adds material probably written in 1944. The German text is presented alongside the English translation by Peter Winch, and all entries are presented chronologically, with a subject index for reference.
