What does it mean for ethics to say, as Wittgenstein did, that
philosophy "leaves everything as it is"? Though clearly absorbed
with ethical questions throughout his life and work, Wittgenstein's
remarks about the subject do not easily lend themselves to
summation or theorizing. Although many moral philosophers cite the
influence or inspiration of Wittgenstein, there is little agreement
about precisely what it means to do ethics in the light of
Wittgenstein. Ethics after Wittgenstein brings together an
international cohort of leading scholars in the field to address
this problem. The chapters advance a conception of philosophical
ethics characterized by an attention to detail, meaning and
importance which itself makes ethical demands on its practitioners.
Working in conversation with literature and film, engaging deeply
with anthropology and critical theory, and addressing contemporary
problems from racialized sexual violence against women to the
Islamic State, these contributors reclaim Wittgenstein's legacy as
an indispensable resource for contemporary ethics.
