The Literary Wittgenstein is a stellar collection of articles
relating the philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889-1951) to core
problems in the theory and philosophy of literature. Amid growing
recognition that Wittgenstein's philosophy has important
implications for literary studies, this book brings together
twenty-one articles by the most prominent figures in the field.
Eighteen of the articles are published here for the first time. The
Literary Wittgenstein applies the approach of Wittgenstein to core
areas of literary theory, including poetry, deconstruction, the
ethical value of literature, and the nature and logic of fictional
discourse. The literary dimension of Wittgenstein's own writings is
also explored, such as the authorial strategy of the Tractatus, and
writing and method in the Philosophical Investigations. Major
literary figures discussed in the book include William Faulkner,
Joseph Conrad, and Friedrich Hoelderlin. By mapping out the
foundations of a new approach to literature, The Literary
Wittgenstein is essential reading for anyone interested in the
relevance and application of Wittgenstein's thought to literary
theory, aesthetics, and the philosophy of language and logic.
