Product Description
This is a new edition of the first volume of G.P.Baker and P.M.S. Hacker’s definitive reference work on Wittgenstein’s Philosophical Investigations.
Takes into account much material that was unavailable when the first edition was written.
Following Baker’s death in 2002, P.M.S. Hacker has thoroughly revised the first volume, rewriting many essays and sections of exegesis completely.
Part One – the Essays – now includes two completely new essays: 'Meaning and Use' and 'The Recantation of a Metaphysician'.
Part Two – Exegesis 1–184 – has been thoroughly revised in the light of the electronic publication of Wittgenstein’s Nachlass, and includes many new interpretations of the remarks, a history of the composition of the book, and an overview of its structure.
The revisions will ensure that this remains the definitive reference work on Wittgenstein’s masterpiece for the foreseeable future.
Book Description
Published to widespread acclaim between 1980 and 1996, the monumental four-volume Analytical Commentary on the Philosophical Investigations has become the definitive reference work on Wittgenstein's masterpiece. This revised edition of Volume One, Wittgenstein: Understanding and Meaning, which itself contains two parts ("Essays" and "Exegesis 1-184"), takes into account much material that was unavailable when the first edition was written. Following G. P. Baker's death in 2002, P.M.S. Hacker has thoroughly revised both parts, rewriting many sections completely. Part One-the Essays-now includes two new essays: "Meaning and Use" and "The Recantation of a Metaphysician," while Part Two-Exegesis 1-184-has been exhaustively reworked in the light of the electronic publication of Wittgenstein's Nachlass. These revisions will ensure that this remains the essential reference work on the Philosophical Investigations for the foreseeable future.
