Wittgenstein’s Nachlass, a Case for Practical Ontology?

From the book Ontological Commitment Revisited

  • Jonathan Smith

Abstract

The aim of this chapter is to discuss the question of whether Wittgenstein’s Nachlass is to be taken as a central source for the diffusion of his philosophy. The author gives several reasons why the Nachlass is a useful source of philosophical research and how its organization by the trustees helps use it as a source. The author comments on various methods of scientific work and discusses them in the context of the Nachlass.
