Tractatus

Book • 2021
The Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus is a seminal philosophical text by Ludwig Wittgenstein, published during his lifetime.

It explores the nature of language, logic, and reality, arguing that many philosophical problems arise from misunderstandings of language.

The book is structured as a series of numbered propositions, offering insights into the limits of language and the distinction between what can be said and what must remain silent.

It has been highly influential in the development of logical positivism and continues to be a central work in philosophical discussions.
