Ludwig Wittgenstein loved movies, and based on his remarks on
watching them, there is a strong connection between his experience
of watching films and his thoughts on aesthetics. Furthermore,
however, Wittgenstein himself has been invoked in recent cinema.
Wittgenstein at the Movies is centered on in-depth explorations of
two intriguing experimental films on Wittgenstein: Derek Jarman's
Wittgenstein and Peter Forgacs' Wittgenstein Tractatus. The
featured essays look at cinematic interpretations of Wittgenstein's
life and philosophy in a manner bound to provoke the lively
interest of Wittgenstein scholars, film theorists, and students of
film aesthetics. As well, the book engages a broader audience
concerned with philosophical issues about film and Wittgenstein's
cultural significance, with the world of fin-de-siecle Vienna, of
Cambridge in the first half of the twentieth century, of artistic
modernism.
