The limit of language is one of the most pervasive notions found in
Wittgenstein's work, both in his early Tractatus
Logico-Philosophicus and his later writings. Moreover, the idea of
a limit of language is intimately related to important scholarly
debates on Wittgenstein's philosophy, such as the debate between
the so-called traditional and resolute interpretations,
Wittgenstein's stance on transcendental idealism, and the
philosophical import of Wittgenstein's latest work On Certainty.
This collection includes thirteen original essays that provide a
comprehensive overview of the various ways in which Wittgenstein
appeals to the limit of language at different stages of his
philosophical development. The essays connect the idea of a limit
of language to the most important themes discussed by
Wittgenstein-his conception of logic and grammar, the method of
philosophy, the nature of the subject, and the foundations of
knowledge-as well as his views on ethics, aesthetics, and religion.
The essays also relate Wittgenstein's thought to his
contemporaries, including Carnap, Frege, Heidegger, Levinas, and
Moore.
