Wittgenstein in 90 Minutes is a hilarious biography of him. He is a complete nutter

This, start with his late philosophy.

>Studying fiction writers, philosophies of which, were refuted during their birth (pragmatism, methodologism, logical-positivism, etc)
Hope the history of Philosophy book, that you are writing fellow /lit/ter, will be done in a manner of those youtube videos, which explain concepts in 5 difficult levels. So that not a single witty stone thread will appear again.

Don't listen to this guy. Read Tractatus and then move on to PI. Always boggles my mind that people just throw the Tractatus entirely away when it has some good things said in it.

Yeah, yeah, Wittgenstein dismissed the picture theory; that doesn't mean there aren't interesting worthwhile thoughts therein.

Because the Tractatus has no consensus on its interpretation and it's not why he's still famous.

The Tractatus is legitimately a better book from a logico-philosophical and epistemological standpoint. Phil. Inv. is just good from a language standpoint.
