    WITTGENSTEIN 2020 aq Budapest WITTGENSTEIN Az Art Quarter Budapest kiállítóterében, a Project Space-ben egy tematikus, nemzetközi csoportos kiállítás látható, illetve csak volt látható és lesz ismét látható , hiszen a járványügyi helyzet miatt jelenleg mi is zárva vagyunk. A Wittgenstein című vándorkiállítás tehát átmenetileg Budafokon rekedt, ez a videó próbál betekintést nyújtani, próbálja a maga formája szerint láthatóvá tenni a tárlat anyagát. A kiállítás címe egyetlen név: Wittgenstein E név nélkül viszont másképpen gondolkodnánk az olyasféle nagy témákról, mint a logika, a nyelv, a képiség. Wittgenstein életében mindössze egyetlen filozófiai művét jelentette meg, a Tractatust, amit a szó szoros értelmében az első világháború lövés- zárkaiban írt. „A világot tények határozzák meg, és az hogy az összes tény. Vagy fennáll valami- nek az esete, vagy nem áll fenn, és minden egyéb marad változatlan.„ E mű centenáriuma adta az ötletet a kiállítás kurátorának, Denise Parizeknek erre a nemzetközi vándorkiállításra, amely helyszínről-helyszínre változik. Ludwig Wittgenstein a filozófiának és különösen az úgynevezett katedrafilozófiának olykor radikálisan hátat fordító legendás személyiség is volt, aki nagypolgári létét feladva állt például vidéki általános iskolai tanítónak. A kiállítás a kettősségek jel- lemzik: a személytelennek tűnő bölcseleti tézisek és a személyesség, a nyelv és a hallgatás, a kommunikáció és az értetlenség, a manuális munkamódszerek és a digitális művek kettőssége, festmények és installációk, szobrok és filmek, humor és pátosz összjátéka. A kiállítás szándéka, hogy egyaránt kedvet nyújtson a wittgensteini szövegek tanulmányozásához és további tanulmányozásához, illetve felvillantsa a kortárs kép- zőművészet elgondolkodtató és örömöt adó játéktereit.

  • Brian Mcguinness Ist Am 23
    In Honor of Brian McGuinness Josef Mitterer My relation to Brian McGuinness is the respectful relation of a younger colleague and -- many years back -- the relation of an admiring student who met him in Graz where he became an honorary professor in 1988. The achievements of Brian McGuinness have been praised so often and by so many that it is not easy to say something new, to find new praise which has not been offered already by someone else. The basic data: Brian was born 90 years and 4 days ago -- he studied at Oxford university and spent 35 years a Tutor, as a Fellow and a University Lecturer at Queens College. From 1989 to 2002 he was a Professor of History of Scientific Thought at the University of Siena. From the list of universities where he taught as a guest professor: Stanford, Princeton, Bejing, Rome, Leiden, Graz ... Brian McGuinness has authored and edited more than 30 books. They include a new translation of the Tractatus, the edition and translation of the Prototractatus -- both together with David Pears – and together with Joachim Schulte he published the definitive edition of the Tractatus, one of the most influential philosophical books of the 20th century. It is safe to say that nobody in Academia has done as much for the recognition of Wittgenstein in particular and of Austrian Philosophy in general as Brian McGuinness in the course of 60 years of writing and lecturing. The academic world is inhabited by a variety of species. A very rare one is that of the geniuses who publish very little in their lifetime but fill notebooks, journals and "Zettel" with ideas – (nowadays more likely hard discs or memory sticks) 1 which are then left to hardworking academics who clear up the mess and edit collected works which establish the lasting fame and influence of those thinkers.

I attempted to do this by constructing a history that was itself a piece of analytic philosophy in its emphasis on analysis, reconstruction and criticism of arguments. In rebutting Hacker’s critique of it, I explain how my goal shaped my selection of topics, with special reference to the ordinary language period. I correct his misrepresentations of my treatment of the philosophers of this period, I demonstrate his failure to grasp, or understand the significance of, the Kripkean necessary a posteriori, and I reveal the misconceptions in his criticism of my interpretation of the ‘Tractatus’. I I am grateful to the Editors for inviting me to reply to P.M.S.

Ludwig Wittgemtein . 0. INTRODUCTION: BROUWER AND WITTGENSTEIN. On 10th of March 1928, L.E.J.Brouwer, the main proponent of the intu- itionist philosophy of mathematics, came to Vienna to deliver a lecture entitled Mathematics, Science and Language.l Wittgenstein was present, together with Herbert Feigl and Friedrich Waismann, among the public attending Brouwer’s lecture.:! According to Feigl, perhaps this was the turning point, because after- wards, in a cafe, Wittgenstein suddenly began talking philosophy.3 It seems, in retrospect, that Brouwer’s lecture made a lasting impression on Wittgenstein. That he seems to have been influenced by Brouwer, is documented in a letter from Bertrand Russell to G.E.Moore in 1930, where we read: “He (Wittgenstein) uses the words ‘space’ and ‘grammar’ in peculiar senses, which are more or less connected with each other. He holds that if it is significant to say ‘This is red’ it-cannot be significant to say ‘This is loud’. There is one ‘space’ of colours and another ‘space’ of sounds. These ‘spaces’ are apparently given a priori in the Kantian sense, or at least not perhaps exactly that, but something not so very different. Mistakes in grammar result from confusing ‘spaces’.

Giunzione tra progettazione della casa e la soglia che segna il superamento del Tractatus logico-philosophicus e l’inizio delle Ricerche filosofiche? Costruire è parlare e scrivere, intima solidarietà tra parola-scrittura e costruire-progettare, di qui il naufragare eroico dell’astratto nel concreto. Between 1926 and 1928, Ludwig Wittgenstein and Paul Engelmann designed Haus Wittgenstein in Vienna for Margarethe Stonborough. A combination of the design of a house and of the threshold which marks the surpassing of the Tractatus logico-philosophicus and the beginning of the Philosophical Investigations? Building is speaking and writing, intimate solidarity between word-writing and building-designing, hence the heroic foundering of abstraction in the tangible.

  • Chapter 5. Language: Private, Public, Solitary, Shared on the Received
    Chapter 5. Language: private, public, solitary, shared On the received reading of Ludwig Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations1, the book contains an argument purporting to show the impossibility of a private language. There has been a lively debate, however, on how the relevant notion of a private language is to be understood, and what considerations should be taken to rule it out. Some have understood Wittgenstein to mean that a language must be something that several speakers actually share, while others take him to mean that a language must be something that they could, in principle, share. Or, slightly differently put, on one view, speaking a language presupposes the actual existence of a linguistic community upholding certain shared standards of meaning and correctness, while on the other view, it only presupposes that such a community might have existed. These views have come to be known as the ‘community view’ and the ‘solitary speaker’ view, respectively.2 Furthermore, supporters of the community view tend to think that the discussion about privacy holds a central place in Wittgenstein’s later philosophy, whereas those who support the solitary speaker view usually see its bearings as limited to the issue of the privacy of experience. 1 Ludwig Wittgenstein, Philosophical Investigations (Oxford: Basil Blackwell, 1958). References to this work will be indicated with the abbreviation PI followed by paragraph number. 2 Rather than two monolithic positions, what we have here is a spectrum of views ranging between two extremes. To mention but a few examples: the best-known formulations of the community view are to be found in Norman Malcolm, “Following a Rule” in his book Nothing is Hidden (Oxford: Basil Blackwell, 1986), as well as in his essay “Wittgenstein on Language and Rules” in Wittgensteinian Themes: Essays 1978-1989 (ed.

  • De Por Qué En La Filosofía Importan Los Ejemplos*
    ________________________________________________________________________________ ARETÉ Revista de Filosofía Vol. XIX, N° 1, 2007 The Architect´s Gesture* Jean Pierre Cometti Université de Provence The earlier culture will become a heap of rubble and finally a heap of ashes, but spirits will hover over the ashes. L. Wittgenstein, Culture and Value The deceitful slogan “The terms: architect or architecture, he detested them and never said: architect or architecture, and every time that I or someone else pronounced these words, he instantly replied he could not hear the words architect or architecture, that those two words were merely verbal deformations, nothing more, spawns no thinking being could allow himself to use and, incidentally, I never did so in his presence and, besides, even when I was elsewhere I could not use the words architect or architecture anymore; Höller has also grown accustomed to not using the words architect or architecture, we also limited ourselves to speaking of construction or the art of construction; and that the term construction was one of the most beautiful terms in existence we had known since Roithamer had spoken on the matter …”1. It is not to Wittgenstein to whom Thomas Bernhard confers this rejec- tion of the terms “architect or architecture”, but to Roithaimer, the con- structor of the Cone, a fictitious builder that is nonetheless a close relation to the philosopher whom he so closely resembles on more than one count. As for Wittgenstein, he figured for some time in the Vienna telephone guide as a professional architect. But this is not to say that he had any great sympathy for the trends displayed by the most representative examples of what the word meant at the time.

    Ludwig Wittgenstein Ludwig Wittgenstein, 1910 Ludwig Josef Johann Wittgenstein (* 26. April 1889 Ludwig Wittgenstein als Kleinkind, 1890 in Wien;† 29. April 1951 in Cambridge) war ein österreichisch-britischer Philosoph. Er lieferte bedeutende Beiträge zur Philosophie der Logik, der Sprache und des Bewusstseins. Sei- ne beiden Hauptwerke Logisch-philosophische Ab- handlung (Tractatus logico-philosophicus 1921) und Philosophische Untersuchungen (1953, postum) wurden zu wichtigen Bezugspunkten zweier philosophi- scher Schulen, des Logischen Positivismus und der Analytischen Sprachphilosophie. 1 Leben und Werk Ludwig Wittgenstein als Kind, vorne rechts mit den Schwestern Wittgenstein entstammt der österreichischen, früh assi- Hermine, Helene, Margarete und Bruder Paul milierten jüdischen Industriellenfamilie Wittgenstein, de- ren Wurzeln in der deutschen Kleinstadt Laasphe im Wittgensteiner Land liegen.

Sein Ziel war es, wie bei Gottlob Frege die mathemati- schen Axiome aus logischen Prinzipien abzuleiten.
