What is Ludwig Wittgenstein Between Analytic Philosophy and Apophaticism about?

This volume initiates an inquiry into the relationship between Ludwig Wittgensteinâ (TM)s â oeanalytic stanceâ towards philosophy and the inherently apophatic nature of his epistemology, a subject that has been repeatedly hinted at, but hitherto never thoroughly researched through this particular hermeneutical lens. In using the term â oeapophaticism, â the book is not merely referring to the theological â oevia negativaâ or to tendencies towards mysticism, but rather to a comprehensive epistemological stance that â oerefuses to identify truth with its formulation and to identify the understanding of the signifier with the knowledge of its signified reality, â to use Christos Yannarasâ (TM) definition. The question of whether Ludwig Wittgensteinâ (TM)s work can be approached as a particularly efflorescent case of the implementation of an implicitly (and at times explicitly) apophatic epistemology is herewith addressed. As such, this volume contends that such an approach would not merely provide elucidations on apophatic epistemologies, but rather shed potentially valuable hermeneutical light on Wittgensteinâ (TM)s work, functioning as an epistemological thread running through it.
