Abstract
|
:
|
Ludwig Wittgenstein was the most influential, and arguably the greatest, philosopher of the 20th century--a result of not only his vast influence but also the number of people he affected. His early work was continued by some of the pioneers of analytical philosophy, and his later work helped spawn another movement within analytic philosophy: ordinary language philosophy (sometimes called Oxford philosophy). He is also considered by some to be a key postmodern thinker, and an interest in his work is a distinguishing feature of many postanalytical philosophers who seek to bridge the gap between analytical and so-called continental philosophy. This second edition...contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section provides more than 300 cross-referenced entries on every aspect of Wittgenstein's thought and works. The book is an excellent reference for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the topic. (back cover).
