FIRST EDITION. 1 blank leaf + half title + TP + [7] = Acknowledgment + [8] = Frontispiece + 9-127 + 1 blank leaf. Large Octavo. First Edition (Fr/McG: #882).A Magnificent Record of Ludwig Wittgenstein the ArchitectThe book contains explanatory text along with a wonderfully wide variety of photos, floor plans and facsimile writings - including two large 'fold out' pages. Although he had no formal training as an architect, Wittgenstein did have a strong engineering background and even stronger artistic ideal. He exhibited this early in his career. When he first moved to Cambridge in 1911, he could not find anything simple enough to furnish his rooms, so he oversaw the design and construction of a complete set of furniture which met his standards. This same aesthetic rigor came strongly to the fore with this project for Margarete.The house itself was breathtakingly simple in its stark outlines and Wittgenstein complimented this on the inside with his strong aversion to any kind of superfluous ornamentation, As noted by Monk:The house was designed with little regard to the comforts of ordinary mortals. The qualities of clarity, rigour and precision which characterize it are indeed those one looks for in a system of logic rather that in a dwelling place. In designing the interior Wittgenstein made extraordinary few concessions to domestic comfort. Carpets, chandeliers and curtains were strictly rejected. The floors were of dark polished stone, the walls and ceilings painted a light ochre, the metal of the windows, the door handles and the radiators was left unpainted, and the rooms were lit with naked light-bulbs. [See our Catalog 24: Ludwig Wittgenstein: The Man and His Thought for a collection of 81 books and pamphlets by and about Wittgenstein.] Publisher's original stiff orange wraps with black lettering to the front cover and the spine which is lightly sunned. Overall, a lovely copy of this amazing addition to our understanding of Ludwig Wittgenstein. ADDITIONAL PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

FIRST EDITION. In three issues of MIND. Volume LXII, No. 249 (January 1954): original wrappers + [1]-144 + [145]-[148] = Publisher's advertisements; Volume LXII, No. 251 (July 1954): original wrappers + [i]-[iv] = Publisher's advertisements + 289-432; Volume LXII, No. 253 (January 1955): original wrappers + [1]-144 = [146]-[148] = Publisher's advertisements. Octavo, First Editions (Fr/McG: W.'s lectures in 1930-33, p. 46 + #205). Wittgenstein's writings and lectures during the first half of the 1930s play a crucial role in any interpretation of the relationship between the Tractatus and the Philosophical Investigations. The manuscripts from 1930 onward record his first steps away from the Tractatus concluding with an early version of the Philosophical Investigations which he had completed by the end of 1936. The first four pages of the first article offered here contain some wonderful biographical information on Wittgenstein and his relationship with Moore, and, in even more detail, his friendship with Frank Ramsey. Moore follows this with his edited version of the comprehensive notes he took during those lectures. His original archived notes comprise almost 80,000 words and cover the full range of everything that Moore heard during these early lectures. In these articles, Moore does an extraordinary job of organizing and systematizing Wittgenstein's sprawling discussions. But, he cautions that:I will try to give some account of the chief things he said under all these heads; but I cannot possibly mention nearly everything, and it is possible that some of the things I omit were really more important than those I mention. Also, though I tried to get down in my notes the actual words he used, it is possible that I may sometime have substituted words of my own which misrepresent his meaning: I certainly did not understand a good many of the things he said. Moreover, I cannot possibly do justice to the extreme richness of illustration and comparison which he used: he was really succeeding in giving what he called a 'synoptic' view of things which we all know. Nor can I do justice to the intensity of conviction with which he said everything which he did say, nor to the extreme interest which he excited in his hearers. Beyond his attempts to present Wittgenstein's views in an organized fashion, Moore often offers his own views on what Wittgenstein said. Sometimes he points out inconsistencies or peculiarities in Wittgenstein's claims, or points out where he thinks that Wittgenstein was incorrect. Sometimes he expresses doubt as to whether he understood what Wittgenstein was trying to say, and sometimes he even tries to make seemingly implausible claims of Wittgenstein's more plausible by offering possible interpretations of what Wittgenstein may have meant. The articles give a palpable sense of Moore puzzling through Wittgenstein's developing thought. It is a charming and insightful look into the thought processes of two of the most complex and original thinkers of the 20th century. NOTE: the first, January 1954, issue offered also includes a 30-page "critical notice" of Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations written by P. F. Strawson. [See our Catalog 24: Ludwig Wittgenstein: The Man and His Thought for a collection of 81 books and pamphlets by and about Wittgenstein.] Publisher's original light grey wrappers printed front and back, inside and out. With very minor dings to the wrappers and a few closed tears to the spine sections. Overall, this is a really lovely set of these three important continuous essays by G.E. Moore reporting on his friend and colleague Ludwig Wittgenstein. ADDITIONAL PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 215 x 145mm; various paginations. WITTGENSTEIN IN CAMBRIDGE: LECTURES AND RECOLLECTIONS. All first editions, published between 1979 and 1981. A very attractive group in uniformly designed dust-jackets. Blackwell's relationship with Wittgenstein dates to the 1950s and their famous edition of the Philosophical Investigations. These three volumes, each with a photographic college scene to the jacket, are part of the 'third generation' of Wittgenstein publishing - the first being the few lifetime works; the second being the major posthumous works. Here we offer two volumes of previously unpublished lectures, dating from the crucial period when Wittgenstein began to develop his mature philosophy. The third volume is the singularly revealing collection of 'recollections' by those who knew Wittgenstein, including Hermine Wittgenstein, F.R. Leavis, M. O C. Drury and others. Near fine: all three volumes in excellent condition; very slight dusting to the top of the 1932-1935 lectures; all clean and bright throughout.
