Description: Movements of Thought by Ludwig Wittgenstein, James C. Klagge, Alfred Nordmann, Ray Monk Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Wittgensteins diary from the 1930s contains the raw material for what could have been an incomparable spiritual autobiography. For the first time in an affordable edition, the volume includes updated and expanded editorial notes on Wittgensteins many allusions, and an introduction by Ray Monk on the larger arc of Wittgensteins life and work. Publisher Description While the published works of Ludwig Wittgenstein reveal the final, coalesced thoughts of this philosophical giant, Wittgensteins diary reveals his process of doing philosophy. Only in his private writing does Wittgensteins philosophical practice fully come to light. In particular, Wittgenstens diary entries from the 1930s reveal themselves as a first-person spiritual epic. Wittgenstein agonizes over his relationship with Marguerite Respinger and tries to come to terms with its failure. He relates and interprets several of his dreams. He comments on his philosophical colleagues Frank Ramsey and G.E. Moore. He comments on musicians such as Beethoven, Bruckner and Brahms, and authors such as Kraus, Mann, Nietzsche, Dostoevsky, and Kierkegaard. He struggles to make confessions to a number of friends and family. He relates in painful detail his spiritual crisis in Norway in the late winter of 1937. From a man who once recommended silence about spiritual matters, we find here an honest and searing articulation of his attempts to believe and live what he finds in the Bible. Here are the raw materials for what could have been one of the great spiritual autobiographies of the twentieth century. It is available here for the first time in an affordable edition, with updated and expanded editorial notes to help the reader understand Wittgensteins many allusions, and with a new Introduction by Ray Monk, which places the diary in the larger arc of Wittgenstein life. Author Biography James Klagge is professor of philosophy at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.
