曾经对维也纳学派起过很大影响的奥地利哲学家维特根斯坦(1889—1951),恐怕是英国资产阶级哲学界目前讨论得最多的一个哲学家了。由于他的学说过去在国内介绍得还不多,我们在本期特地选择了三篇论述他的哲学思想的文章。另外选择的一篇书评“热情的哲学家”,虽是评述三本研究维特根斯坦的著作,却提供了一些关于维特根斯坦的身世和其他方面的材料;这些也都可以参考。 Wittgenstein (1889-1951), an Austrian philosopher who had had a great influence on the Vienna school, was perhaps the most widely discussed philosopher in the British bourgeois philosophies. Since his theory was not introduced domestically in the past, we have specially selected three articles that deal with his philosophical thoughts in this issue. An alternative book review, The Enthusiastic Philosopher, which reviews Wittgenstein’s work in the three studies, provides some information about Wittgenstein’s life and other sources; these are also sources for reference.
