Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tres de los cuatro hermanos varones de Ludwig Wittgenstein –a cual más brillante– acabarían por suicidarse, una posibilidad que contempló el propio Ludwig varias veces a lo largo de su vida. Afortunadamente, quien estaba destinado a ser el miembro útil de una cosmopolita familia vienesa no llegó nunca a atentar contra su vida; por el contrario, cambió la aeronáutica por la filosofía y, en cierto modo, puso el punto final a veinticinco siglos de pensamiento filosófico. Wittgenstein fue un lógico excepcional que desconfiaba del lenguaje y cuya solución a los problemas tradicionales de la filosofía pasaba por reducirlos a la lógica. Todo lo demás –metafísica, estética, ética, la filosofía misma– quedaba excluido: "Sobre lo que no se puede hablar, se debe callar". En Wittgenstein en 90 minutos, Paul Strathern expone de manera clara y concisa la vida e ideas del torturado genio vienés. El libro incluye una selección de sus escritos, una breve lista de lecturas sugeridas para aquellos que deseen profundizar en su pensamiento, y cronologías que sitúan a Wittgenstein en su época y en una sinopsis más amplia de la filosofía.
Download or read book Wittgenstein from a New Point of View written by Jesús Padilla Gálvez and published by Peter Lang Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frankfurt/M., Berlin, Bern, Bruxelles, New York, Oxford, Wien. Undoubtedly, Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889-1951) is considered one of the most famous philosophers. In contrast to other 20th century philosophers, who arranged to have their complete works published while still alive or after their deaths, Wittgenstein's works are still incompletely published with only part of them being in print. He wasn't concerned with the issue of notoriety nor was he concerned with fame. However, his lectures and publications would very early be recognized by his Spanish colleagues and were reviewed as early as in 1933. This volume is designed to present new ideas and approaches to analysis to open up a new perspective in the reception of Wittgenstein's works. This volume of essays has a unity and bears throughout the imprint of Wittgenstein's powerful and original mind. The authors have published most of their contributions in international journals. They are willing to present their results to debate and would welcome constructive feedback.

Download or read book Wittgenstein s World of Mechanics written by Gerd Grasshoff and published by . This book was released on 2006-09-27 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ludwig Wittgenstein refers to Heinrich Hertz as one of his major influences. However, up to now it was not clear from where he acquired his knowledge of mechanics and in which way it contributed to his philosophy. The aim of this book is to answer these questions. It shows that Wittgenstein came in contact with Hertz’s physical world view during his studies in Berlin. It had an effect on his view of the natural sciences in the Tractatus, and Hertz's conception of mass-particles led to its central notion of a simple object. It was especially Wittgenstein’s teacher in Berlin, Joseph Petzoldt, who played an important intermediary role. The manuscript of his 1907 course of lectures "Grundbegriffe der Mechanik" is published here for the first time. It is complemented by reprints of related texts on the topic by Neumann, Lange and Petzoldt.

Download or read book Radical Poetics and Secular Jewish Culture written by Stephen Paul Miller and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays is the first to address this often obscured dimension of modern and contemporary poetry: the secular Jewish dimension. Editors Daniel Morris and Stephen Paul Miller asked their contributors to address what constitutes radical poetry written by Jews defined as "secular," and whether or not there is a Jewish component or dimension to radical and modernist poetic practice in general. These poets and critics address these questions by exploring the legacy of those poets who preceded and influenced them--Stein, Zukofsky, Reznikoff, Oppen, and Ginsberg, among others.

Download or read book Hermeneutic Shakespeare written by Min Jiao and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-02-06 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume takes a deep dive into the philosophical hermeneutics of Shakespearean tradition, providing insight into the foundations, theories, and methodologies of hermeneutics in Shakespeare. Central to this research, this volume investigates fundamental questions including: what is philosophical hermeneutics, why philosophical hermeneutics, what do literary and cultural hermeneutics do, and in what ways can literary and cultural hermeneutics benefit the interpretation of Shakespearean plays? Hermeneutic Shakespeare guides the reader through two main discussions. Beginning with the understanding of "Philosophical Hermeneutics", and the general principles of literary and cultural hermeneutics, the volume includes philosophers such as Friedrich Ast, Daniel Friedrich Schleiermacher, and Wilhelm Dilthey, as well as Ludwig Wittgenstein, Martin Heidegger, Hans-Georg Gadamer, and more recently, Steven Connor. Part Two of this volume applies universal principles of philosophical hermeneutics to explicate the historical, philosophical, acquired, and applied literary interpretations through the critical practices of Shakespeare’s plays or their adaptations, including Henry V, The Merchant of Venice, Hamlet, and The Comedy of Errors. Aimed at scholars and students alike, this volume aims to contribute to contemporary understanding of Shakespeare and literature hermeneutics.
