Description

Explore a detailed account of Ludwig Wittgenstein's philosophy of mathematics in this scholarly work from Routledge. This book provides a deep examination of how Wittgenstein approached mathematical thought and his lasting legacy in the field. Part I sets the stage by discussing Frege's logicist attempt to provide arithmetic with a foundation and Wittgenstein's criticisms of that approach. Readers will find sketches of his early views found in the Tractatus and during the early 1930s. Part II focuses on his mature philosophy of mathematics from 1937-44. Schroeder examines the two key ideas that form the basis of this period: the calculus view and the grammar view. This text is an essential resource for those studying the history of mathematics and the evolution of logical philosophy.
