ABOUT THIS BOOK
The most wide-ranging and accessible thoughts of a philosophical genius, from his private notebooks
Throughout his life, Ludwig Wittgenstein reliably set down his thoughts in notebooks. This volume offers a selection of the most interesting and important of the remarks from those notebooks that deal with matters other than technical philosophical issues. In these pages, Wittgenstein reflects on religion, the work of philosophy, genius, music, architecture, and much more. Peter Winch's translation of Wittgenstein's remarks on culture and value presents all entries chronologically, with the German text alongside the English and a subject index for reference.
