Abstract

ittgenstein I. Lecturas tractarianas is an original way to approach Ludwig Wittgenstein’s first work: Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus (1921). Padilla’s analysis is not only focused on the main concepts of Wittgenstein’s early philosophy, but also on a provocative discussion on the origins of these concepts, especially for Spanish speaker philosophers. The author presents his main theses based on an extensive revision, not only of Wittgenstein’s philosophical concepts, but also of his uses of German terminology and their complex translations into the Spanish language. With this approach, Padilla invites the Spanish speaker to reflect on the origin of the concepts used in the Tractatus in order to better understand Wittgenstein’s aphorisms.
