书籍简介

维特根斯坦(Wittgenstein)的这部杰作在其初次英文出版一个世纪后，这部新翻译的正版揭示了一部杰出的哲学和文学天才的作品

“哲学”，路德维希·维特根斯坦曾经写道，“实际上应该只作为诗歌来写”。维特根斯坦的杰作《逻辑哲学论》，以及他生前出版的那本书，作为关于逻辑极限的现代文本流传下来，激励着艺术家和哲学家们，这并不奇怪。《逻辑哲学论》由525条等级编号的陈述性陈述组成，每一条都是“不言而喻的”，正如译者达米安·塞尔斯所写的那样，《逻辑哲学论》充满了我们可能期望——也可能想要——从这样一位标志性的哲学家那里得到的那种“神秘的宏伟”和“令人敬畏的不透明”。然而，之前的翻译急于复制德语的措辞和语法，有一种生硬的，甚至带有维多利亚时代的气味。通过这个新的翻译和对书中语言的重要介绍，由知名学者Marjorie Perloff作序言，Searls公正地对待了维特根斯坦的神秘杰作，在不牺牲其哲学严谨性的情况下，捕捉了原作流畅有力的语言——事实上，使维特根斯坦的哲学比以往任何时候都更清晰。

Appearing a century after its first English-language publication, this newly translated en face edition of Wittgenstein’s masterpiece reveals a work of exceptional philosophical and literary genius

“Philosophy”, Ludwig Wittgenstein once wrote, “should actually be written only as poetry”.  That Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus―Wittgenstein’s master-work, and the book he published during his lifetime―endures as the modern text on the limits of logic, inspiring artists and philosophers alike, comes as no surprise.  Consisting of 525 hierarchically numbered declarative statements, each one “self-evident”, Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus is imbued, as translator Damion Searls writes, with the kind of “cryptic grandeur” and “awe-inspiring opacity” we might expect―might want―from such an iconic philosopher.  Yet previous translations, in their eagerness to replicate German phrasing and syntax, have a stilted, even redolently Victorian air.  With this new translation and an important introduction on the language of the book, prefaced by eminent scholar Marjorie Perloff, Searls does justice to Wittgenstein’s enigmatic masterpiece, capturing the fluid and forceful language of the original without sacrificing its philosophical rigour―indeed, making Wittgenstein’s philosophy clearer than ever before in English.
