As well known, Wittgenstein’s writings are affected by some critical issues. Excluding the Tractatus, in their original state, they are not thought for publication and, therefore, they are not ready for it. The works of Wittgenstein published posthumously by his trustees are the product of sometimes-opaque choices and of a selection of parts of writings that often does not consider the entire and later developments of Wittgenstein’s thought. In the Nachlass we find several versions of the same ‘project of work’ or the same thought. These versions can present little linguistic variations or important conceptual modifications. So, editing Wittgenstein’s writings for publishing a work can mean considering an incomplete part of the development of his thought on a topic or only an intermediate phase of his looking through a phenomenon.
