Wittgenstein's Philosophy of Language

First published in 2005

This book studies the often overlooked work of Ludwig Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, the Tractatus and their later work being argued as being mutually illuminating.

Bogen states that the works of Wittgenstein require a study of their points of contact which led to the formation of this title.

This is accomplished by studying the text in two parts: its relevance to picture theory, the subsequent abandonment of the picture theory.
