Ludwig Wittgenstein's 'Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus' is one of
the most important books of the twentieth century. It influenced
philosophers and artists alike and it continues to fascinate
readers today. It offers rigorous arguments but clothes them in
enigmatic pronouncements. Wittgenstein himself said that his book
is 'strictly philosophical and simultaneously literary, and yet
there is no blathering in it'. This introduction, first published
in 2005, considers both the philosophical and the literary aspects
of the 'Tractatus' and shows how they are related. It also shows
how the work fits into Wittgenstein's philosophical development and
the tradition of analytic philosophy, arguing strongly for the
vigour and significance of that tradition.
