Its austere beauty - along with its famous 'picture theory' of meaning - has inspired generations of thinkers, artists, novelists and musicians. In a series of short, bold statements, Wittgenstein seeks to define the limits of meaningful expression. Originally published in the early 1920s, it is the only book-length work the renowned philosopher published in his lifetime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this thrilling new translation, accompanied by a lively introduction by Jan Zwicky, Alexander Booth displays an extraordinary sensitivity to the subtle influence on Wittgenstein's gem-like prose - at once specialist and, often, remarkably plain-spoken - of his background in mechanical engineering, while at the same time highlighting the underlying poetry of this seminal text.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48227595813099,"sku":"EB_PH0800_00000_RC","price":22.89,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780241484173-1.jpg?v=1786097643","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9780241484173","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
