Publisher Description:
Volume WA9 of the Vienna edition is the first publication of Wittgenstein's "Philosophical Remarks" as Wittgenstein wrote them down during the Easter holidays of 1930 or, rather, as he produced them from the synopsis of his first four manuscript volumes TS 208 (WA7). This is the first time that a self-contained corpus of Wittgenstein's posthumous work is available in its entirety, making it possible to study Wittgenstein's complex movements of thought in detail: from the transitions from manuscript volumes I to IV (WA1 and WA2) to the synopsis TS 208 (WA7) - the remarks selected by Wittgenstein for the evaluation of his work from 1929/1930 - and from there via the rearrangement of the synopsis in the TS 209 note collection to the "Philosophical Remarks", volume 9 of the Vienna Edition. Via the left margin apparatuses of the volumes of the Vienna Edition, the text is linked to the preceding one in such a way that readers can understand how the remarks change their meaning in a new context. This is Wittgenstein's method of repetition, the "transition from the question of truth to the question of meaning". The apparatus that goes backwards in the volumes of the Vienna edition will be supplemented and expanded in the future by an electronic one. In this apparatus, the manifold connections of Wittgenstein's comments can be traced in all directions. With the publication of further volumes of the edition, these links, the "organic" nature of Wittgenstein's thought and writing, will gradually be revealed.
