Abstract

In his lifetime Wittgenstein published 100 pages; after his death he left 20.000 pages of more or less aphoristic remarks. So his enormous significance and his influence on movements like the Vienna Circle and Oxford-style Ordinary Language Philosophy may come as a surprise. In this class, an attempt will be made to identify and trace the development of important themes of his thought.
