Anscombe St. Augustine's Press, 2001 The reviewer who mentions the irony of Wittgentstein and Anscombe's friendship is incorrect. Throughout most of his adult life, Wittgenstein flirted with conversion to the Catholic faith. Don't read the Tractatus and fall into the naive trap of logical positivism. Wittgenstein was above all concerned with fighting the modern, secular worldview and promoting a religious one. Though he did not explicitly endorse scripturual stories as literal truth, he was concerned to promote a ...             Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus Ludwig Wittgenstein Cosimo Classics, 2007 "Austrian philosopher LUDWIG WITTGENSTEIN (1889¿1951) was hugely influential on 20th-century philosophy, and here, he constructs a series of carefully and precisely numbered propositions on the relationship between language, logic, and reality, using a numbering system to show nested relationships between the propositions. Considered one of the major recent works of philosophy¿a reputation enhanced, undoubtedly, by Bertrand Russell¿s glowing ...             The Foundations of Arithmetic: A Logico-Mathematical Enquiry into the Concept of Number5 reviews Gottlob Frege Northwestern University Press, 1980 The first escape from the Elencus... You know how _frustrating_ it is, reading a platonic dialog? Some question like "What is virtue?" or "What is justice" is asked, and Socretes goes on for pages showing that the so-called "experts" don't have a clue about what it really is? But what's _really_ frustrating is that you're all expecting, at the end of the dialog, after following a hard line of argument, that you'll be rewarded ...             Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (Routledge Classics)42 reviews Ludwig Wittgenstein Routledge, 2001 This is the ONLY worthy review The Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus is a riddle that only makes sense whence you understand it. He makes this point clear, saying that the Tractatus consists in two works, that which he has written and that which he obviously did not write. And that if one person read the book with understanding, the Tractatus would achieve its proper place in history. So, after 80 years of misunderstandings, ...             Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus Ludwig Wittgenstein Book Jungle, 2007 Published originally in 1921 this book is considered one of the most important philosophical works of the 20th century. This discussion on philosophical thought can be summed up in this quote from the beginning of the book. "what can be said at all can be said clearly, and what we cannot talk about we must pass over in silence".             Tractatus Logico-Theologicus, Revised Edition5 reviews John Warwick Montgomery CILTPP Inc., 2003 A masterpiece of Christian Apologetics John Warwick Montgomery should be ranked with C. S. Lewis (a significant influence on Montgomery and a man with whom he corresponded) and Francis Schaefer, as among the greatest Christian apologists of the Twentieth Century. Indeed, there are areas where Montgomery has surpassed this distinguished company: his penetrating critique of both secular and non-Christian religious philosophies of ...             Tractatus Logico-philosophicus1 review Ludwig Wittgenstein Barnes and Noble, 2003 Very useful, not ideal To study the Tractatus what you want is the German text alongside a good translation. I bought this book because it gives you just that. The translation is even the one by Ogden (and others), which Wittgenstein himself helped with. So this ought to be the best available edition of the Tractatus, and perhaps it is. However, the German text is spoiled by the number of typos (sometimes several ...             Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus Ludwig Wittgenstein Wilder Publications, 2009 "Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus may be the most important book of philosophy written during the twentieth century. Wittgenstein's writing style is clear, succinct, and accessible. Bertrand Russell claimed that "I cannot see any point on which it is wrong. But to have constructed a theory of logic which is not at any point obviously wrong is to have achieved a work of extraordinary difficulty and importance." Required ready for anyone interested ...             From a Logical Point of View: Nine Logico-Philosophical Essays, Second Revised Edition7 reviews W. V. Quine Harvard University Press, 1980 Quine's Two Dogmas: Nominalism and Wholism This small book of 184 pages including an index is a collection of previously published papers. The chapters "On What There Is", "Reification of Universals", "Identity, Ostension and Hypostasis", "Reification of Universals", "Theory of Reference" and "Two Dogmas" expound on two central theses of Quine's philosophy of language. The first thesis is his nominalism, and the second is his wholism ...             Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus - Ludwig Wittgenstein Ludwig Wittgenstein Book Jungle, 2007 Published originally in 1921 this book is considered one of the most important philosophical works of the 20th century. This discussion on philosophical thought can be summed up in this quote from the beginning of the book. "what can be said at all can be said clearly, and what we cannot talk about we must pass over in silence".             Wittgenstein's Tractatus: An Introduction (Cambridge Introductions to Key Philosophical Texts) Alfred Nordmann Cambridge University Press, 2005 Ludwig Wittgenstein's 'Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus' is one of the most important books of the twentieth century. It influenced philosophers and artists alike and continues to fascinate readers today. Alfred Nordmann's introduction considers both the philosophical and the literary aspects of the Tractatus and demonstrates how they are related. It also reveals how the work fits into Wittgenstein's philosophical development and the tradition of ...             Pulling Up the Ladder: The Metaphysical Roots of Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus Richard R. Brockhaus Open Court Pub Co, 1990 "Pulling up the Ladder" discusses how Wittgenstein's early philosophy became widely known largely through the efforts of Russell and other empirically-minded British philosophers, and to a lesser extent, the scientifically-oriented German-speaking philosophers of the Vienna Circle. However, Wittgenstein's primary philosophical concerns arose in a far different context, and failure to grasp this has led to many misunderstandings of the ...             Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus: Reader's Guide (Reader's Guides)1 review Roger M. White Continuum, 2006 very helpful I'm studying Wittgenstein for my doctoral comps (in philosophy), and I must say, not only is this book extremely clear and helpful, it might be the best secondary source on Wittgenstein that I've read. The author stays even-handed and open about his premises, expositing the text with brilliance and clarity.             Los rompecabezas lógicos de Baillif (Spanish Edition) J. C.
