From Frege to Wittgenstein Perspectives on Early Analytic Philosophy

"Analytic philosophy - one of the most important philosophical movements in the 20th century - has gained a new historical self-consciousness, particularly about its own origins. The period between 1880 and 1930 saw important work from its founding figures (Frege, Russell, Moore, Wittgenstein) take root and flourish. The 15 previously-unpublished essays in this collection explore different facets of this period, with an emphasis on the vital intellectual relationship between Frege and the early Wittgenstein."

In this collection, 15 previously unpublished essays explore different facets of this period with special emphasis on the vital intellectual relationship between Frege and the early Wittgenstein. The essays examine a number of important issues: the content and the analysis of thought, the nature of truth, the special status of logic, the foundations of mathematics, the basis of linguistic representation, the distinction between sense and nonsense, and the peculiarities of philosophical elucidation and understanding."@en
