Apart from the Tractatus, Wittgenstein did not write whole
manuscripts, but composed short fragments. The current volume
reveals the depths of Wittgenstein's soul-searching writings - his
"new" philosophy - by concentrating on ordinary language and using
few technical terms. In so doing, Wittgenstein is finally given the
accolade of a neglected figure in the history of semiotics. The
volume applies Wittgenstein's methodological tools to the study of
multilingual dialogue in philosophy, linguistics, theology,
anthropology and literature. Translation shows how the translator's
signatures are in conflict with personal or stylistic choices in
linguistic form, but also in cultural content. This volume
undertakes the "impossible task" of uncovering the reasoning of
Wittgenstein's translated texts in order to construct, rather than
paraphrase, the ideal of a terminological coherence.
