Ludwig Wittgenstein, who died in Cambridge in 1951, is one of the most powerful influences on contemporary philosophy, yet he shunned publicity and was essentially a private man. His friend Norman Malcolm (himself an eminent philosopher) wrote this remarkably vivid personal memoir of Wittgenstein, which was published in 1958 and was immediately recognized as a moving and truthful portrait of this gifted, difficult man. This edition includes also the complete text of the fifty-seven letters which Wittgenstein wrote to Malcolm over a period of eleven years. Apart from the quotations in the Memoir these letters are previously unpublished. They reveal how much friendships mattered to Wittgenstein, and how concerned he was for the health and well-being of his friends. His human qualities become evident; he advises, warns, jokes. and is grateful and affectionate. The volume also features a concise biographical sketch by another leading philosopher who was a friend of Wittgenstein, Georg Henrik von Wright. Much has been published about Wittgenstein since his death, but nothing brings us closer to the man himself than this modest classic of philosophical biography.

評分Kon-Tiki和維特根斯坦 去年有部挪威電影可以看看,叫Kon-Tiki,中文翻成《孤筏重洋》。電影講的是挪威探險傢海爾達爾(Thor Heyerdahl,1914-2002)為證明波利尼西亞人最早的祖先是從南美洲西岸坐木筏順洋流嚮西飄到波利尼西亞的,在1947年4月28日到8月7日,同五個夥伴一起乘...
評分維特根斯坦對於哲學工作是熱情的,但這並不是說他喜愛教學工作。相反,擔任教授職務的日程使他勞纍,另一方麵,他認為自己是一名糟糕的老師(“我可能播下去的唯一種子,隻是一堆難懂的行話”)。對於工作的熱情,他是這樣理解的:一個人應當用畢生的精力去從事他有纔能去做的...
評分 評分附注太長寫不下,放在評論裏:長評就不寫瞭。 傢裏的老書一本,但品相極好,閱讀亦很愜意滋潤。 一些重點 p25,電影:維特根斯坦看俗氣電影來緩解情緒。 因為緊張的思考,他必須坐在電影院第一排讓屏幕塞滿他的整個視野;他必須看俗不可耐的片子來舒緩情緒,清除掉腦袋裏揮之...
