This book explores Wittgenstein's conception of ethics, religion
and philosophy. It aims at providing us with the tools necessary
for assessing to what extent the Austrian philosopher can be
considered an anti-Enlightenment thinker. The articles collected in
this volume explore the relationship between Wittgenstein's thought
and that of several authors who were, in various ways, key to the
counter-enlightenement, authors such as Hume, Schopenhauer,
Nietzsche, Tolstoy, James and Pierce. One of the central issues
examined here is Wittgenstein's opposition to the Cartesian method
of doubt - a cornerstone of the enlightened movement against
prejudice and superstition.
