Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. A partir de 1929, Ludwig Wittgenstein trabaja en lo que en reiteradas ocasiones denomina «mi libro» y cuyo resultado será el escrito a máquina que lleva la signatura TS 213 en el archivo de la Universidad de Cambridge y que data de 1933. Los albaceas de su obra pusieron a este texto mecanografiado, redactado en alemán, el título The Big Typescript, literalmente, «el gran escrito a máquina» o «gran mecanoscrito». El propio Wittgenstein se refería a él como Maschinenschrift o Typescript. Este texto inicia la etapa que podría denominarse de madurez en la obra de Ludwig Wittgenstein. No se puede comprender el Tractatus logico-philosophicus sin la lectura de The Big Typescript. Ningún trabajo relevante sobre la obra temprana de Wittgenstein puede prescindir de consultar los argumentos esbozados en este texto. Pero, sobre todo, no se puede entender gran parte de las posteriores Investigaciones filosóficas sin conocerlo. En este texto se condensan, por un lado, las críticas, conjeturas y argumentos más importantes del autor contra su obra temprana; por otro lado, hay que considerarlo el origen, el taller, por así decir, en el que se forma su obra tardía. Constituye, en definitiva, el primer intento serio en el que Wittgenstein sistematiza su pensamiento filosófico tras volver a Cambridge. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: near fine. First Edition. First printing, quarto size, 516 pp. (but over 1000 including both German and English pp., see below). The philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889-1951) has been vastly influential to artists and thinkers alike; despite having only one book published during his lifetime, Wittgenstein was a prolific writer and many of his manuscripts were published posthumously. This the first printing of his "Big Typescript": a collection of his writings dictated to a typist which Wittengenstein began revising even as he was dictating, "here set out in an en-face German-English scholars' edition, complete with clear indications to help the reader identify the various leverls of Wittgenstein's edition" (n.b., info and quote from jacket flap). ___DESCRIPTION: Bound in full black cloth over boards, silver lettering stamped onto the spine, black endpapers, the German-language pages on the left (versos) and the English-language pages facing those, on the right (rectos); quarto size (9 7/8" by 6 7/8"), pagination: [i-v, preliminary pages] vi-xviiie [2] 1-506e (note that the publisher numbered the English pages with the same page number as the German with the letter 'e" appended), 507-512 ("Register") 513-516 ("Index"). The dust jacket is unclipped (albeit unpriced), on the front panel an image of Wittgenstein overlaid with a facimile of the annotated typescript, review blurbs on the back panel, short summary of work on the front flap, short bios of the editors/translators on the back flap. ___CONDITION: Volume fine overall, with clean boards, straight corners without rubbing, a strong, square text block with solid hinges, the interior is clean and bright, and entirely free of prior owner markings; a minute spot at the top of the front joint, a very shallow ding to the bottom edge of the front board, else fine. The unclipped dust jacket near fine, clean with light overall edgewear and a few shallow unintended creases at the head of the spine and the top of the back panel. ___POSTAGE: Please note that this is an unusually large and heavy volume (as the actual page count is over 1000, including the German and English pages) and additional postage may apply; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA, ILAB, and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

FIRST EDITION. Half title with the German TP on verso + TP + [v] = Dedication page _ vi-xie = Einleitung der Herausgeber / Editors' and Translators' Introduction + xii-xviiie = Inhaltsverzeichnis / Table of Contents + [1]-[1e] = half titles + 2-506e + 507-512 = Register + 513-516 = Index + 1 blank leaf. Octavo. First Edition. The English Translation of His First Attempt to Write a Second Philosophy BookThis behemoth of a book - numbering 1,040 'traditional' pages - offers the original German text along with the first publication of a facing-page English translation of "The Big Typescript" and included extensive footnotes in both languages. Wittgenstein felt it was important "that the thoughts in [this book] should progress from one subject to another in well-ordered consecutiveness" and he tried to manage this goal by organizing the material under nineteen different chapter headings: Understanding.Meaning.Proposition. Sense of a Proposition.Immediate Understanding and the Application of a Word in Time.The Nature of Language.Thought. Thinking.Grammar.Intention and Depiction.Logical Inference.Generality.Expectations. Wish. etc.Philosophy.Phenomenology.Idealism, etc.Foundations of Mathematics.On Cardinal Numbers.Mathematical Proof. Inductive Proofs. Periodicity. The Infinite in Mathematics. The Extensional Viewpoint. The wealth of insight and understanding that this book provides into the mind of Ludwig Wittgenstein during this early phase of his transition from the logic-focused philosophy of the Tractatus to his later language-based approach is immense. Because of this abundant and very clear presentation of his 1933 thinking, The Big Typescript has been acknowledged by scholars as one of the most important publications from Wittgenstein's Nachlass to date. [See our Catalog 24: Ludwig Wittgenstein: The Man and His Thought for a collection of 81 books and pamphlets by and about Wittgenstein.] Publisher's original dustjacket with white and light brown lettering over a photo of Wittgenstein on the front panela and similarly on the spine and the rear panel. Over the publisher's original black boards with gilt lettering to the spine. A fine copy. ADDITIONAL PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

FIRST EDITION. 1 leaf with publisher's logo + TP + [V] = Inhaltsverzeichnis / Contents + VII - XI = Einleitung / Introduction + half title + 3-546 + 1 blank leaf. Folio. First Edition. Wittgenstein's First Attempt to Write a Second Philosophy BookThis first publication of "The Big Typescript" is - other than the bilingual "Contents" and "Introduction" - completely in German.Frustrated by the failure of his project with Waismann, Wittgenstein had begun clipping texts from the notebooks where he had jotted down his thoughts since his arrival at Cambridge in 1929. He reordered these and then had them typed up in the hopes that he would be able to publish the results in a book. It was Wittgenstein's first major attempt to write a second philosophy book which would present his thoughts since his return to Cambridge and his hope of correcting what he now considered to be the "serious errors" of his earlier work in the Tractatus.Despite being an unfinished manuscript, the "Big Typescript" does exhibit a clear structure and organization, showcasing Wittgenstein's meticulous approach to philosophical inquiry. This structure guides the reader through the complex web of his intertwined ideas, providing a valuable framework for understanding his later works.But, in the end, "The Big Typescript" is only a very large fragment presenting his early 1930s thinking, without either a title, a motto or any kind of substantial conclusion. This typescript does, however, provide concrete, substantial and important evidence of Wittgenstein's evolving transition from his earlier logic-focused philosophy to his later language-based approach.Regarding "The Big Typescript", Wittgenstein noted that he felt it was important "that the thoughts in [this book] should progress from one subject to another in well-ordered consecutiveness". This noble intention was, however, seriously challenged by the rapid changes in his thought at this time. But, despite its obvious limitations, it is precisely this ultimately rejected structure of the "Big Typescript" that makes it such a valuable document in understanding the ongoing evolution of Ludwig's thinking at this time. The text reflects Wittgenstein's engagement with contemporary philosophical debates and figures, including Frege, Russell, and most especially, Schlick, Carnap and Waismann of the Vienna Circle. It provides a unique perspective on the intellectual climate of the time and the arguments and insights he was wrestling with as he tried to present his extensive reflections on the nature and limitations of philosophy itself. Overall, Wittgenstein argues that traditional philosophy has often misunderstood its role and been misled by its own methods. He proposes a more humble and therapeutic approach to philosophy, focusing on clarifying our understanding of language and the ways in which it shapes our thinking.Though never published in its entirety during Wittgenstein's lifetime, "The Big Typescript" has become an essential source for scholars and students of his philosophy, offering a significant glimpse into the working mind of this brilliant philosopher revealing the struggles and revisions that shaped his final views.[See our Catalog 24: Ludwig Wittgenstein: The Man and His Thought for a collection of 81 books and pamphlets by and about Wittgenstein.] Original publisher's white dustjacket with black lettering to the front panel and the spine over dark blue boards with a small spine label (LW 11).

Edición de Luis M. Valdés Villanueva. 17x12. 144 pp. Ed. KRK. Oviedo, 2009. "En enero de 1929 Wittgenstein salió de Viena para, en principio, pasar unas cortas vacaciones en Cambridge, invitado por su amigo el economista John Maynard Keynes. Hacía tres años que había reaunudado parcialmente su actividad filosófica; había mantenido encuentros informales con miembros del Círculo de Viena y le preocupaba solucionar algunas dificultades conectadas con el Tractatus. Una vez en Cambridge, decidió permanecer allí para estudiar ciertos temas relacionados con el "espacio visual" en el que se convertiría en su vuelta definitiva a la filosofía. Durante los primeros meses de 1929 estuvo convencido de que el estudio fenomenológico de "lo dado" y el diseño de un "lenguaje fenomenológico" era el modo de establecer un fundamento seguro para su filosofía. Pronto se dio cuenta sin embargo de que la construcción de tal lenguaje era innecesaria e imposible y que el estudio fenomenológico era en realidad una indagación gramatical. En este cuaderno se presenta la primera traducción castellana de la sección titulada "Fenomenología" del denominado Big Typescript (1933), en la que Wittgenstein pone en práctica su concepción "gramatical" de la fenomenología, reflexionando de manera general sobre las diferencias entre investigación fenomenológica y científica (física, psicológica, etcétera) y examinando problemas concretos relacionados como, por ejemplo, qué significa que el espacio visual no tenga un posesor, la idea de que pudiera haber minima visilia o las relaciones entre colores como rasgo gramatical. El texto de Wittgenstein va precedido de una introducción que contextualiza y explica el tránsito wittgenstiano de la fenomenología a la gramática.La presente edición de esta obra corre a cargo de Luis M. Valdés Villanueva, catedrático de Lógica y Filosofía de la Ciencia de la Universidad de Oviedo, que se ocupa de cuestiones relacionadas con la filosofía del lenguaje y de la mente, y ha prestado especial atención a la filosofía de Wittgenstein. ISBN: 978-84-8367-230-3".

Introducción de Luis M. Valdés Villanueva. Traducción de Ángel García Rodríguez. 112 pp. 12x17 cm. KRK Ediciones. Oviedo. En filosofía, el ganador de la carrera es aquél que puede correr más despacio. O el que llega el último a la meta. Sólo cuando se piensa mucho más locamente que los filósofos, se pueden resolver sus problemas. Uno de los mayores obstáculos de la filosófía es la expectativa de explicaciones nuevas, profundas, nunca oídas. Los hombres que no tienen necesidad alguna de claridad están perdidos para la filosofía.
