Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus is Ludwig Wittgenstein's concise and formally structured philosophical treatise on logic, language, and the limits of meaningful expression.First published in 1921, this foundational work of twentieth-century analytic philosophy presents a series of numbered propositions examining the relationship between language and reality. Wittgenstein argues that the structure of meaningful statements mirrors the logical structure of the world, and that philosophical confusion arises from misunderstandings of linguistic form. The work proceeds with mathematical precision, culminating in its famous final proposition concerning the limits of speech.Written during and shortly after the First World War, the Tractatus profoundly influenced logical positivism and the development of analytic philosophy. Though Wittgenstein would later revise many of its assumptions, the work remains a central text in modern philosophy, studied for both its formal elegance and its lasting impact on discussions of logic, semantics, metaphysics, and epistemology.This edition presents the complete and unabridged text.
