Wittgenstein despre sensul lumii în Tractatus 6.41 – O analiză critică
Wittgenstein on the meaning of the world in Tractatus 6.41. A critical analysis

Summary/Abstract: The following text constitutes a critical analysis of 6.41, from Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus. As I have understood it, the paragraph contains an argument (central to Wittgenstein’s book) meant to support the conclusion at 6.421: “It is clear that ethics cannot be expressed. (…)”. In what follows I aim to do three things. First, I will talk about the context of 6.41. Then I will try to reconstruct the argument of 6.41 such that its logical structure becomes apparent. Finally, I will consider several critical reactions which could target the argument in its reconstructed form and try to claim that a critical evaluation of Wittgenstein’s argument is nowhere near an end.
