Beyond The Tractatus Wars: The New Wittgenstein Debate

Over fifteen years have passed since Cora Diamond and James Conant turned Wittgenstein scholarship upside down with the program of resolute reading, and ten years since this reading was crystallized in the major collection The New Wittgenstein. This approach remains at the center of the debate about Wittgenstein and his philosophy, and this book draws together the latest thinking of the world’s leading Tractatarian scholars and promising newcomers. Showcasing one piece alternately from each camp , Beyond the Tractatus Wars pairs newly commissioned pieces addressing differing views on how to understand early Wittgenstein, providing for the first time an arena in which the debate between strong resolutists, mild resolutists and elucidatory readers of the book can really take place. The collection includes famous samizdat essays by Warren Goldfarb and Roger White that are finally seeing the light of day.
