Wittgensteinism

Ludwig Wittgenstein was a philosopher who revolutionized the field of analytic philosophy in the 20th century. His work spanned from logic and metaphysics to ethics and religion, and he challenged many of the assumptions and methods of traditional philosophy. In this article, I will explore Wittgenstein’s philosophy and its implications for various philosophical problems. I will focus on two main stages of his thought: the early Wittgenstein, who wrote the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, and the later Wittgenstein, who wrote the Philosophical Investigations. I will also discuss some of the controversies and debates that his philosophy has generated among scholars and critics.

History
Ludwig Wittgenstein was one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century, but his life was also full of drama, mystery, and contradiction. He was born into a wealthy and cultured family in Vienna, Austria, in 1889, but he renounced his inheritance and lived in poverty for most of his life. He studied engineering, mathematics, and logic, but he also had a passion for music, art, and architecture. He served as a soldier in World War I, where he wrote his first masterpiece, the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, but he later rejected its main ideas and turned to a different style of philosophy. He taught at Cambridge University, where he influenced many students and colleagues, but he also spent long periods of time away from academic life, working as a gardener, a teacher, or a recluse. He struggled with his sexuality, his religion, and his moral ideals, and he died of cancer in 1951, leaving behind a legacy of original and profound thought.

Beliefs
( WIP I Will finish this later ) Ludwig Wittgenstein was a philosopher who explored the nature and limits of language, logic, and thought. He is widely regarded as one of the most original and influential thinkers of the 20th century, but his views on ethics and religion are less well-known and more controversial. In this essay, I will examine Wittgenstein’s beliefs on these topics, based on his published and unpublished writings, as well as his personal remarks and conversations. I will argue that Wittgenstein did not have a systematic or dogmatic position on ethics and religion, but rather a distinctive perspective that challenged many of the assumptions and methods of traditional philosophy.
