The 7th Symposium of the International Ludwig Wittgenstein Society
Università degli Studi di Milano, 7–8 October 2022
70 Years of Editing Wittgenstein
History, Challenges and Possibilities
As is well known, Wittgenstein published only one philosophical book during his lifetime, the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus. Since his death in 1951, numerous writings have been published posthumously by his trustees – with more or less editorial modifications, depending on the condition of the manuscripts and typescripts. In Wittgenstein-scholarship, this has repeatedly given rise to discussion, criticism and, in some cases, new (also digital) editions, translations and collections. Now, 70 years after Wittgenstein’s death, his writings have entered the public domain in many countries, significantly changing the way his writings can be accessed and dealt with.
On behalf of the International Ludwig Wittgenstein Society (ILWG), we would like to take the passing of these 70 years as an opportunity to rethink the philological and editorial work on and with Wittgenstein’s writings. More concretely, the conference aims to link philosophical, philological and editorial aspects and questions and to discuss how the editorial decisions of the last 70 years have shaped the reception of Wittgenstein and what problems and opportunities might arise from this for the future, especially concerning digital editions of Wittgenstein’s Nachlass. Within the framework of the three panels “History”, “Challenges” and “Possibilities”, there will be individual lectures devoted to editorial-philological problems in the past, stylistic peculiarities in the editing and translation of Wittgenstein’s writings and new forms of presentation through digital formats.
In addition, new perspectives for broader digital access to Wittgenstein’s works will be showcased in a workshop centred on the Ludwig Wittgenstein Project.
