This volume covers aspects of Ludwig Wittgenstein's time in Swansea between 1942 and 1947.
A multidisciplinary and accessible approach to a key period of Wittgensteins work.
This edited volume covers aspects of Ludwig Wittgensteins time in Swansea from 1942 to 47. It covers his interaction with Rush Rhees, his stimulus for the Swansea School, and his broader influence on students, academics, and a plethora of writers from a range of disciplines and interests. It looks at his philosophy and legacy through various lenses and perspectives. These include explanations and assessments of Wittgensteins time and work at Swansea from Ray Monk, Jonathan Smith, and Alfred Schmidt; historical and cultural scene setting from Jeff Towns; analyses of the Swansea School from Mario von der Ruhr, and Huw Williams; literary comparisons from Daniel Williams; ideological evaluations from Rhianwen Daniel; and a range of intimate reflections and commentaries from James Kelman, Jamie Bill, and M. Wynn Thomas. Editor Alan Sandry also offers some psychogeographical observations and considers Wittgensteins present-day significance within Swansea.
