One life was enough for Wittgenstein to revolutionize the history of thought twice. In this book we will discover how he did it.
"What cannot be talked about, it is better to remain silent."

Ludwig Wittgenstein revolutionized the history of thought on two occasions. That is why two clear stages are distinguished in his thought: the first - to which this sentence belongs - corresponds to the pictorial theory of meaning and the second revolves around the maxim "the meaning of a word is in its use."

The honesty of his philosophical work was such that he did not hesitate to throw down the main idea of his first stage, which many still revered and which he himself had understood as the final point of philosophy. This book simply presents the most important aspects of his thought while offering a portrait of his complex personality, according to the author's own conviction, which maintained that philosophy and life were not unrelated, but that one was a reflection of the other and vice versa. .

With the help of Doctor of Philosophy Carla Carmona, the reader will discover in Wittgenstein a human being deeply occupied both with fundamental ethical questions—even when dealing with questions of logic—and with aesthetic concerns that guide his philosophical work.
