In this episode we're going to explore three very different thinkers who nonetheless converge on their theories of language. We're going to see if we can't extract an intelligible whole out of the ideas generated by this trio: the Nietzschean theory of language as command, the view of Cassirer that man is a symbolic animal, and Wittgenstein's concept of the language-game.

Me considero una persona con los pies en la tierra. Necesito ciencia, referencias, experiencia contrastada antes de darle crédito a algo, pero no dudo en decir que las palabras hacen magia. Crean conjuros y cambian realidades. En este episodio hablo de por qué las palabras no solo describen la realidad sino que la construyen. Del motivo por el qué la mayoría de nosotros las usamos con una vaguedad que, si nos detuviéramos a examinarla, nos resultaría perturbadora y que consecuencias directas tiene en cómo pensamos, cómo nos relacionamos y quiénes somos cuando nadie nos observa. Hablo de Wittgenstein y el Tractatus, de su cadena intelectual desde Frege y Russell hasta el Círculo de Viena. De Diógenes observando a las personas no por lo que decían sino por cómo lo decían. De Epicteto y el espacio entre el estímulo y la respuesta. De la logophasía como herramienta de transformación personal. De la economía cognitiva detrás del lenguaje vago: por qué el cerebro elige siempre la palabra más cómoda y qué se pierde cada vez que lo hace. Un episodio lleno de sabiduría clásica y moderna para escuchar más de una vez y un recordatorio para aplicar en tu día a día.

In our continuation of Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations, we'll discuss Wittgenstein's arguments against the possibility of a private language, which culminates in the position that all subjective experiences of sensations are not communicable. Thus, language must be doing something else, other than communicating inner experiences, with its words that seem to refer to these experiences. Of particular interest to Wittgenstein is the communication of pain, and sense perceptions. Finally, we'll consider Wittgenstein's arguments as concern meaning: presumably there is an inner experience of "meaning something" by one's words, which is different from how the words may be perceived - or the individual may even intend to deceive. Is it therefore sensible to speak about an "inner meaning" separate from common use? Join me as we explore my favorite ideas from Wittgenstein!

General Wittgenstein: Russia's “Savior of St. Petersburg” General Peter Wittgenstein was one of Imperial Russia's most important commanders during the Napoleonic Wars, earning the nickname “The Savior of St. Petersburg” for stopping Napoleon's advance in 1812. In this special guest, Jimmy Chen will explore Wittgenstein's rise through the Russian army, his crucial victories at Kliastitsy and Polotsk, and his role in halting French momentum during the invasion of Russia.Often overshadowed by generals like Kutuzov and Bagration, Wittgenstein proved to be one of Russia's most aggressive and effective field commanders. His actions on Napoleon's northern flank protected Russia's capital and helped turn the tide against the Grande Armée.Whether you're a fan of Napoleon, Russian military history, or the decisive campaigns of 1812, this deep dive into General Wittgenstein reveals why he deserves far more recognition.

In this episode, I explore Stanley Cavell alongside Ludwig Wittgenstein and reflect on the idea that the therapist can, in an important sense, be understood as a kind of ordinary language philosopher. I talk about first encountering Cavell years ago in seminary in a social ethics class with Dr. Jonathan Tran, and why Cavell's way of thinking about voice, acknowledgment, skepticism, and the ordinary has stayed with me ever since. From there, I trace how Wittgenstein's therapeutic vision of philosophy and Cavell's deepening of ordinary language philosophy can help us think differently about what is happening in the therapy room.Along the way, I explore how people often suffer not only from pain itself, but from words that have become rigid, totalizing, and hard to live inside; how therapy can sometimes work by loosening the grip of those descriptions; and why solution-focused questions can serve as interventions into grammar, possibility, and perception rather than mere information gathering. I also spend time with several beautiful passages from Cavell on forms of life, the uncanny return of the familiar, and the search not for final answers so much as directions worth the time of a life to discover. This is an episode about language, skepticism, acknowledgment, and the quiet, demanding work of helping someone come back into voice.

Wittgenstein, Wittgenstein'in Cetveli, Anayasa, Uluslararası Hukuk

In this episode, we're finally talking about a book near and dear to my heart, Wittgenstein's "Philosophical Investigations" (this book took second place in a Patreon poll, and I decided it was time). What is language? How is the meaning of words determined? Wittgenstein initially proposed a pictorial theory of the meaning of sentences, but after his return to philosophy, Wittgenstein II put forward a new theory of language, as the "language-game". We will discuss Wittgenstein's life and career, and then focus on Philosophical Investigations, a work assembled from notes written over the span of 16 years, covering a wide variety of topics and approaching philosophy through thought-experiments, and reflections on the varied uses of words. Wittgenstein's method is to describe rather than explain, and to take our understanding of words from the metaphysical down to the everyday. "Don't think, but look!"

In this episode in my Philosophy and Solution-Focused Therapy series, I reflect on Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill through the lens of Ludwig Wittgenstein's idea that meaning is use. After a recent client urged me to finally watch the film, I did, for the first time, and absolutely loved it. What especially stayed with me were the scenes between the Bride and Pai Mei, where repetition, correction, action, and discipline begin to look like more than just training. They begin to look like a philosophy of practice.I explore how Wittgenstein's thought helps us see that understanding is not primarily a hidden inner possession, but something that takes shape in use, in action, in learning how to go on within a form of life. From there, I connect Pai Mei's brutal pedagogy to psychotherapy, and especially to solution-focused therapy's attention to small actions, exceptions, patterns, and the lived practices through which change becomes possible.Along the way, I consider what Kill Bill reveals about repetition, mastery, embodiment, and the difference between having an idea and being formed into a capacity. This is an episode about training, meaning, action, and the ways new futures become real not only through insight, but through practice.

In this episode, I explore Wittgenstein's idea of forms of life and what he once called the “whole hurly-burly of human actions,” that living background of practices, relationships, gestures, expectations, and shared meanings within which anything we say or feel can make sense at all. I reflect on the temptation, in both philosophy and psychotherapy, to reduce reality to atomistic parts, hidden inner objects, or eternal foundations, and I make the case that human suffering cannot be understood apart from the swarm of life in which it takes shape. Along the way, I bring this into a clinical register, thinking about anxiety, identity, autism, couples work, and the ways therapy can become less about isolating explanatory units and more about listening for the background against which a life becomes legible. I also weave in a line from Wittgenstein that has stayed with me deeply: “Perhaps what is inexpressible … is the background against which whatever could express has its meaning.” This is an episode about context, mystery, collaboration, and the living weave of human life where both suffering and change become possible.

In this episode of Psyche Podcast, I continue my series on the philosophical foundations of solution-focused therapy by doing a close reading of Nick Drury's essay “Wittgenstein and the Tikanga of Psychotherapy.” Drawing on Wittgenstein's later philosophy, Drury challenges the Cartesian and medicalized picture of the person that has shaped so much of modern mental health discourse, and instead invites us into a vision of therapy rooted in language, relationship, ethical responsiveness, and forms of life. He also explicitly connects Wittgenstein's idea of “disappearing” problems through a changed way of living to solution-focused therapy's way of working.  I use the episode to explore why solution-focused therapy is so often misunderstood as simplistic when, in fact, it rests on a deeply serious philosophical vision of human life. Along the way, I unpack Drury's distinction between “know that” and “know how,” his critique of diagnosis-heavy and decontextualized models of care, and his account of therapy as a space where new language-games, new forms of relation, and new possibilities for living can emerge.  I also bring these ideas down to the level of practice with vivid clinical examples, showing how a Wittgensteinian and solution-focused sensibility can shift the way we listen, the way we ask questions, and the way we understand change itself. This is an episode about clarity, humility, and the ethical depth of therapy when it becomes less a laboratory of explanation and more a living conversation in which people can begin to speak and live differently together.

What do you do when a CARS passage goes back and forth on the same idea for six paragraphs and only gives you the answer in the last sentence? You stay calm and trust the process.In this Jack Westin CARS Reading Skills Workshop, Usher and Molly break down the daily CARS passage "Philosophical Driving" (April 15th), one of the toughest and least interesting passages they've covered on the podcast. This episode is essential for anyone who struggles with dense philosophical CARS passages or who panics when the author doesn't take a clear stance until the very end.This is one of the best episodes for building your tolerance for uncomfortable, unclear CARS passages where the author makes you wait for the punchline.Get started with our resources!

In this episode of Psyche Podcast, I continue my Philosophy & Solution-Focused Therapy series by turning to Steve de Shazer's essay, “Don't Think, But Observe: What Is the Importance of the Work of Ludwig Wittgenstein for Solution-Focused Brief Therapy?” In it, I explore why Wittgenstein matters so deeply to Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, not because he gives it some hidden grand theory, but because he helps us see why the longing for that kind of theory can pull us away from the living reality of therapy itself. I reflect on de Shazer's argument that meaning is rooted in use, in context, in forms of life, and I consider what that means for a therapeutic practice that refuses to get trapped in diagnostic abstraction and instead stays close to language, relationship, exception, and observable change. Along the way, I make the case that Solution-Focused Therapy is far more philosophically serious than its critics often assume, and that its restraint, its precision, and its attention to what is actually happening in a person's life may be part of what makes it so radical.

Did analytic philosophy ruin the entire discipline?For more than a century there has been a divide in Western philosophy between two distinct approaches, often described as analytic and continental philosophy. Analytic philosophy is predominantly based in the English-speaking world taking its name from Bertrand Russell's philosophy of logical analysis that overthrew the grand Hegelian metaphysics of the 19th century. It did so in favour of a focus on logic and linguistic precision, with the assumption that science would do the serious work of uncovering the nature of reality. Continental philosophy, based primarily in France and Germany, has offered a broad range of outlooks on the nature of the human condition and the world. It has been defined by its critics simply in opposition to analytic philosophy.Few thinkers have bridged the divide to be taken seriously by both camps. Yet both traditions now have deep challenges. The original focus of analytic philosophy has become increasingly blurred while in France English speaking philosophy is now in vogue. What is the future of European thought? Are we seeing the end of the analytic and continental divide? Or is the Enlightenment tradition itself under threat and with it the influence and identity of European philosophy?Associate Professor of Philosophy at Northeastern University London, Christoph Schuringa is known for his works on German philosophy and is Editor of the Hegel Bulletin.

In this episode of Psyche Podcast, I continue my series on the philosophy behind solution-focused therapy by taking up a fascinating and delicate question: can Ludwig Wittgenstein be understood as an autistic man, and if so, what might that help us see about his philosophy, about neurodivergence, and about therapy itself?Drawing from Alan Griswold's essay on Wittgenstein, along with broader reflections on Wittgenstein's life and thought, I explore the limits of retrospective diagnosis while still taking seriously the possibility that his relationship to language, precision, social life, and meaning may have emerged from a distinctly neurodivergent form of experience.From there, I connect Wittgenstein's ideas about language-games, meaning, and forms of life to a more humane and expansive way of understanding autism. I also connect those ideas to the spirit of solution-focused therapy, with its deep attention to language, lived reality, and the creation of more workable futures.This is an episode about philosophy, neurodivergence, and what becomes possible when we stop treating difference simply as defect and begin listening for a different grammar of being.

In this episode, I begin a loose new series exploring the philosophical influences behind Solution-Focused Therapy, especially the work of Steve de Shazer. Too often, Solution-Focused Therapy gets caricatured as simplistic, overly optimistic, or not serious enough about suffering. I argue that this misses something much deeper. Beneath its lightness of touch is a remarkably sophisticated way of thinking about language, change, and the construction of possibility.I offer a biographical sketch of de Shazer and then trace some of the major intellectual currents that help illuminate his work, including Wittgenstein, pragmatism, Derrida, and Paul de Man. Along the way, I reflect on why Solution-Focused Therapy may be less about uncovering the hidden truth of a problem and more about helping create new descriptions that make different futures imaginable.This is an episode about language, suffering, restraint, and the quiet radicalism of asking a different kind of question.

What kind of money are we talking about? The why behind the holdings? A podcast production secret --- and so much more! Enjoy!In this third edition of Unfiltered, I talk about the one question I always start with when someone entrusts me with their capital, what multi-generational wealth really means (and why it's a mindset, not a number), the expensive truth about cheap stocks, why I came for the puzzle but stayed for the people, how AI is reshaping the advisory world — and the doorman fallacy that should make us all pause before we automate too much. I also share what I've been obsessing about lately, from Wittgenstein's family story to the art of giving, and I let you in on a little secret about what happened recently after I stopped a certain recording.Highlights:“What kind of money are we talking about?” — The most important question in investing isn't about returns or risk tolerance. It's understanding the story behind the capital — how it was accumulated, what it means emotionally, and what losing or growing it would feel like. Context shapes everything.Multi-generational wealth is a mindset, not an amount. A family with $100K who thinks about legacy and stewardship has a multi-generational fortune. A family with billions who doesn't think beyond their own lifetime does not. More families than ever are entering this mindset.“I came for the puzzle, but I stayed for the people.” The intellectual challenge of investing draw me in, but the human dimension — serving families across generations, building something cathedral-like brick by brick — is what keeps me going.The expensive truth about cheap stocks. Frugal savers are drawn to what looks cheap, but cheap stocks can create more trouble than seemingly expensive businesses with long runways. Quality is like a 30-year-old Toyota still on the road — it wasn't the cheapest, but it outlasted everything.The doorman fallacy and AI. Borrowed from Rory Sutherland's doorman analogy — replacing human roles with automation by reducing them to their most visible function misses the invisible value. Applies to advisory work, customer service, and anywhere human presence matters.Families who rebuild vs. families who build for the first time. First-generation wealth builders are in foreign territory. Families rebuilding after loss are returning to something remembered. Both are powerful, but the relationship with wealth is fundamentally different.Playing the long game means playing forever. Don't think about how quickly you can win — think about how long you can continue to play. If you can play forever, you can't really lose unless you stop.Truly hearing someone vs. just listening. It's not improv — it's a deeper presence where you catch the subtle nuance, the pause, the word choice, and steer the conversation toward what matters.The post-recording revelation. Some of the best moments happen after you stop recording. Staying the extra five minutes with a guest can yield the “cherry on the cake” that makes the whole episode come together.Podcast Program – Disclosure StatementBlue Infinitas Capital, LLC is a registered investment adviser and the opinions expressed by the Firm's employees and podcast guests on this show are their own and do not reflect the opinions of Blue Infinitas Capital, LLC. All statements and opinions expressed are based upon information considered reliable although it should not be relied upon as such.

Micaela Latini"Amras"Thomas BernhardTraduzione di Magda OlivettiEdizioni Adelphiwww.adelphi.itSprofondati nelle tenebre della torre di Amras, emblema di un sobborgo di Innsbruck, due fratelli illuminano lo sfacelo di un'intera civiltà.«Nei miei libri tutto è artificio ... e lo spazio della scena è totalmente buio ... Nell'oscurità tutto diventa più chiaro» ha scritto Bernhard. Ed è dalle tenebre della torre di Amras, dove hanno trovato rifugio dopo essere scampati al suicidio della loro famiglia – concertato in una notte di Föhn –, che affiorano sotto i nostri occhi i fratelli K . e Walter. Avvinghiati l'uno all'altro, prigionieri di una «endogamia spirituale», uniti da un affetto che scaturisce dalla «reciproca avversione naturale», vivranno in quel luogo «un'unica notte senza sonno»: una notte attraversata, per noi lettori-spettatori, da un freddo bagliore, e da una domanda perenne, destinata a non avere risposta: «perché siamo costretti a vivere ancora?». Libro prediletto di Bernhard, presto dimenticato per la sua giovanile sfrontatezza e l'audacia compositiva – cui concorrono materiali disparati, pagine scritte da Walter nella torre, lettere, aforismi –, Amras ci sconcerta ancora oggi per la sua voce inaudita, come quella della «cornacchia congelata» che abita in queste pagine e in ognuno di noi, turbandoci «con la sua attenzione»: la coscienza.Thomas Bernhard nasce nel 1931 a Heerlen, in Olanda, figlio di una ragazza-madre che aveva lasciato l'Austria per sottrarsi allo scandalo. Ancora neonato, viene affidato ai nonni con i quali vive, prima a Vienna, poi a Seekirchen e a Salisburgo, gli anni dell'infanzia e dell'adolescenza. Frequenta il liceo classico, che non conclude. A diciotto anni viene ricoverato in sanatorio, dove comincia a scrivere. Pubblica racconti su quotidiani e riviste e, nel 1963, il suo primo romanzo, Gelo, che vince il prestigioso premio Brema. I suoi attacchi alle istituzioni statali e a importanti personaggi politici suscitano e continueranno a suscitare scandalo. A partire dagli anni Settanta si dedica intensamente al teatro scrivendo numerosi testi che il regista Claus Peymann mette in scena quasi sempre con l'attore Bernhard Minetti. Nel 1975 pubblica il romanzo Correzione, che alcuni critici, come George Steiner, considerano il suo capolavoro. Muore a Gmunden nel 1989.Tra le sue opere principali: Perturbamento, Il nipote di Wittgenstein, Il soccombente, Estinzione. Il suo teatro è raccolto in sei volumi da Ubulibri (tutti riproposti da Einaudi). Dei romanzi di Bernhard Einaudi ha pubblicato Gelo, Correzione e Amras.Micaela Latini insegna Estetica e Letteratura tedesca all'Università di Ferrara. Tra le sue pubblicazioni: Il Possibile e il Marginale. Studio su Ernst Bloch (Mimesis, 2005); Il Museo degli errori. Thomas Bernhard e gli Antichi Maestri (AlboVersorio, 2011); La pagina bianca.

This conversation delves into the life and philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein, exploring his fascinating background, family influences, and the impact of his experiences during World War I on his philosophical development. The discussion highlights his significant works, including the Tractatus and Philosophical Investigations, and examines the complexities of his character, including his relationships and personal struggles.Wittgenstein was a complex character with a rich background.He attended school with Hitler, which is a fascinating historical coincidence.His family was immensely wealthy, influencing his education and life choices.Wittgenstein's father was involved in the steel industry, making a fortune.Several of Wittgenstein's siblings tragically committed suicide.He was educated in a demanding household that valued achievement.Wittgenstein served in World War I, where he faced death and developed his philosophical ideas.His experiences in war led him to explore spirituality and the meaning of life.The Tractatus was a significant work that he believed solved philosophical problems.Wittgenstein's later work, Philosophical Investigations, challenged his earlier ideas.

A century ago, philosophy split its seams. Cambridge's revolt against British Hegelianism promised “clarity,” Vienna's scientific modernism tried to rebuild from scratch, and postwar America professionalized it all while quietly erasing the politics that once burned at the core. We invited Christoph Schuringa, editor of Hegel Bulletin and author of A Social History of Analytic Philosophy and Karl Marx and the Actualization of Philosophy, to map the break—and to argue why Marx didn't abandon philosophy so much as put it back to work.We start with Russell and Moore's rebellion and the Bloomsbury circle that treated linguistic precision as a moral breakthrough. Then we step into Red Vienna, where the Unity of Science lived alongside adult education, social housing, and austro‑Marxist reform. Wittgenstein links both worlds: sanctified by the Vienna Circle, wary of their empiricism, mystical yet method-obsessed, and ultimately a catalyst for the linguistic turn that reshaped Anglo‑American departments. The Cold War's shadow looms large here; McCarthyism and professional incentives sanded down the political edge of philosophy of science, leaving behind procedures without projects.From there, we pivot to Marx. Schuringa makes a provocative case: Capital is philosophical not because it states doctrines, but because it enacts dialectical thinking adequate to its object. Rather than a self‑contained logic applied to reality, Marx tracks how concrete oppositions ripen into contradictions—how specialization collides with labor mobility, how accumulation breeds crisis. Ethics reenters the frame too. Instead of rulebooks, we get the hard work of situated judgment and character, closer to Aristotle than to textbook deontology. Species‑being names our capacity for freedom and mutual recognition within social life; its glimpses are already here in imperfect forms, like care untethered from payment.If you've ever wondered why analytic philosophy persists, why Wittgenstein feels both central and strange, or how Marx can guide action without sanctifying dogma, this conversation connects the dots. Join us for a tour from Cambridge to Vienna to London and back to the workshop of history—and stay for a clear, practical case for philosophy that helps us think and act together. If this resonates, share it with a friend, leave a review, and tell us: what should philosophy dare to do next?Send a text Musis by Bitterlake, Used with Permission, all rights to BitterlakeSupport the showCrew:Host: C.

Neste episódio do podcast Filosofia Pop, Marcos Carvalho Lopes conversa com Laurênio Sombra sobre a filosofia de Ludwig Wittgenstein e a transformação de seu pensamento entre o Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus e as Investigações Filosóficas. A conversa explora a passagem de uma concepção lógica da linguagem para uma visão em que o significado surge do uso, dos jogos de linguagem e das formas de vida. Nesse contexto, o entrevistado apresenta a noção de redes de sentido: conjuntos de práticas, pressupostos e conexões de significado que estruturam a compreensão do mundo e explicam tanto a estabilidade do sentido quanto os conflitos que surgem quando redes diferentes entram em choque. O episódio discute como essa proposta amplia a leitura de Wittgenstein e oferece uma ferramenta para pensar linguagem, cultura e antagonismo na filosofia contemporânea.

Marco Gigante"Il fuoco che arde l'anima"Indagini filosofiche sull'amoreAnders Solferinowww.solferinolibri.itDifficile sfuggire a quel sentimento formidabile e sublime che chiamiamo amore. Ma che cosa significa amare? Cosa accade quando ci innamoriamo?E perché le parole «ti amo» possono generare tanto sconcerto? Sono alcune delle domande a cui non solo i filosofi, ma donne e uomini di ogni tempo hanno tentato di rispondere. L'amore ci guida lungo i sentieri del sapere, in una ricerca di sé e dell'altro che è il cuore di ogni possibile felicità; spesso si accompagna alla paura, a passioni che ci fanno perdere il contatto con il mondo, anche se poi è proprio nello smarrimento che è possibile ritrovarsi.

In this conversation, the John Gibbs, Dr Richard Miller and Dan Rowland delve into Wittgenstein's 'Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus', exploring its complex themes surrounding language, meaning, and the limitations of expression. They discuss Wittgenstein's philosophical ambitions, the structure of language, and how his ideas have influenced modern philosophy. The conversation highlights the challenges of interpreting Wittgenstein's work and the significance of what cannot be said in philosophical discourse.Wittgenstein's 'Tractatus' is structured around seven propositions.The book explores the relationship between language and reality.Wittgenstein argues that many philosophical problems stem from misunderstandings of language.The famous opening line states that 'the world is everything that is the case.'Wittgenstein's work is often misunderstood and not widely read outside philosophical circles.He believed that what cannot be spoken about must be passed over in silence.Philosophy should clarify language rather than add new truths.Wittgenstein's ideas have influenced various branches of modern philosophy.The importance of silence in expressing the inexpressible is a key theme.Wittgenstein's pursuit of truth leads to the conclusion that many things are unknowable.

The Philosophy of Translation (Yale UP, 2024) is a fresh, approachable, and convincing account of what translation really is and what translators actually do. As the translator of sixty books from multiple languages, Damion Searls has spent decades grappling with words on the most granular level: nouns and verbs, accents on people's names, rhymes, rhythm, “untranslatable” cultural nuances. In this book, he connects a wealth of specific examples to larger philosophical issues of reading and perception. Translation, he argues, is fundamentally a way of reading—but reading is much more than taking in information, and translating is far from a mechanical process of converting one word to another. This sharp and inviting exploration of the theory and practice of translation is for anyone who has ever marveled at the beauty, force, and movement of language. In this episode, Ibrahim Fawzy sat down with Damion Searls to discuss The Philosophy of Translation, exploring what it truly means to read as a translator, how grammar shapes worldview, and where creativity lives in the space between languages. Damion Searls studied philosophy at Harvard and is a prominent translator from German, Norwegian, French, and Dutch, including books by Nietzsche, Wittgenstein, Rilke, Proust, Kielland, Jelinek, Schwitters, Mann, Modiano, and Fosse. His own books include the novel Analog Days, the poetry volume The Mariner's Mirror, and The Inkblots, a history of the Rorschach test and biography of its creator. Ibrahim Fawzy is an Egyptian literary translator and writer. He is the translator of Hassan Akram's A Plan to Save the World (Sandorf Passage, 2026). His interests include translation studies, Arabic literature, ecocriticism, disability studies, and migration literature.

The Battle of Bautzen (May 20–21, 1813) – Napoleon's Hard-Fought Victory in the War of the Sixth CoalitionIn today's episode, special guest Jonas de Neef breaks down the Battle of Bautzen, one of the most intense and strategically intriguing clashes of the 1813 campaign. Fought after Napoleon's retreat from Russia, Bautzen saw the Emperor attempt to crush the combined Prussian & Russian armies under Blücher and Wittgenstein. Despite a tactical French victory, the battle failed to deliver the decisive blow Napoleon desperately needed.We explore:Napoleon's strategy and the movements leading to BautzenKey commanders: Napoleon, Ney, Soult, Oudinot, Blücher, and WittgensteinThe brutal two-day fightNey's missed opportunity that allowed the Allies to escapeCasualties, consequences, and how Bautzen shaped the rest of the 1813 campaignPerfect for fans of Napoleonic history, military strategy, and anyone following the War of the Sixth Coalition.

My guest on the show today is Jonny Thakkar. Jonny is an Assistant Professor in Political Science at Swarthmore College and one of the founding editors of The Point. He's the author of various articles, most recently “Beyond Equality” in the newest issue of the Point, and the 2018 book Plato as Critical Theorist.I asked Jonny on to talk about his late friend and mentor the philosopher and psychoanalyst Jonathan Lear, who was his advisor at the University of Chicago Committee on Social Thought and, as you'll hear in our discussion, his occasional advisor on matters of the heart.He wrote about Lear, after his death, along with a collection of other remembrances from friends and colleagues of Lear's:His own career path was so individual as to be impossible to emulate. Institutionally speaking, he had completed two undergraduate degrees, one in history and the other in philosophy, followed by two graduate degrees, the first a Ph.D. on Aristotle's logic under the supervision of Saul Kripke—a prodigy in contemporary logic and metaphysics who was only eight years older than Jonathan, had no expertise in Aristotle and only ever supervised one other dissertation—and the second a professional qualification in psychoanalysis that licensed him to treat patients clinically. His philosophical interlocutors were many and various, among them Plato, Aristotle, Kierkegaard, Freud, Heidegger, Wittgenstein, Williams, J. M. Coetzee and Marilynne Robinson, but he was no dilettante. He wanted to understand what it meant to be human, and he simply followed that question wherever it took him. Without end, I should add: he took up the study of ancient Hebrew in his mid-seventies because he had become so puzzled by the treatment of the prophet Balaam that he wanted to make sure he wasn't missing anything in translation!That ethos of constant self-development was central to what you might call Jonathan's philosophy of life. Some people use the term “perpetual student” pejoratively; for Jonathan, being open to learning from the world was the key to human flourishing. As he told matriculating undergraduates in a 2009 address, “the aim of education is to teach us how to be students.” In the preface to Open Minded, he wrote that achieving tenure at Cambridge in his twenties freed him from professional pressures to such an extent that he was forced to confront the meaning of his own existence. “I realized that before I died, I wanted to be in intimate touch with some of the world's greatest thinkers, with some of the deepest thoughts which humans have encountered. I wanted to think thoughts—and also to write something which mattered to me.”We talk about Lear's work, but also about what it means to be, or be influenced by, what Lear called a “local exemplar,” which is someone who has a profound influence on the people around him or her. An exemplar could be a real mentor in the classic sense, as Lear was for Jonny and other students of his, or a writer who affects other people just through text, which is how he functioned in my life. It could also be someone who just said or did something once or a few times that stays with us, imprints itself on us, and changes us in ways that unfold over time.So we talk about how Lear played that role in our lives, but also about the ways in which Thakkar may be playing the role of local exemplar, as a teacher, in the lives of his students, and more generally what it is about someone, or something, that makes it capable of influencing us in these ways.One reason we ended up in this space, I think, is that I've been wrestling a lot, lately, with the question of how writing does or doesn't influence people, because I'm writing a book, on relationships and therapy, that edges into the territory of self-help, and I've become moderately obsessed with not replicating the mistake that so many self-help books make on this front, which is thinking that in order to help people, the thing to do is give them straightforward advice on how to do or be better.This always seems to me like a fundamental misunderstanding of how texts change people, and in some ways an odd one to make in particular for the therapists and psychologists who write so many of these books. If anyone should understand that the human psyche is tricky and that real change tends be a product of close relationships and communal structures playing out over time, rather than advice distilled to words, it should be therapists.Texts do change people's lives, but it's indirect. They're poetic. They're narrative. They're allusive and elusive. They're not precision tools to achieve a predictable outcome in readers.Lear understood this. I asked him once if the style of his essays was deliberately looping and associative because he was trying to emulate something about the rhythms of psychoanalytic practice, and his response was surprise. I just try to write clearly, he said, and the more I think the more I believe him. I think there was something so integrated in the way he did all these things – teach, write, practice psychoanalysis – that his version of writing clearly became this thing that I perceived as indirect, and that it is because of this, in some sense, that his writing has the capacity to affect people in a way that most self-help literature doesn't.I didn't know Lear well, as a person, but he had, and continues to have, a big influence on me. That's even more the case for Jonny, as you'll hear. I don't think he's for everyone, but if he might be for you, I really encourage you to pick up one of his books or find one of his essays online. I'll drop in some links to a few of below. He was a remarkable person.Hope you enjoy. Peace.Jonathan Lear articles:* “Aims of Education”* “Inside and Outside the Republic”* “A Case for Irony”* “Wisdom Won from Illness” [this is actually the whole text of one of his books]* “Transience and hope: A return to Freud in a time of pandemic”* “Jumping from the Couch: An Essay on Phantasy and Emotional Structure”* “Can the virtuous person exist in the modern world?” This is a public episode.

En un contexto marcado por la prisa, la hiperconexión y una ventana de atención cada vez más estrecha, dedicamos estas recomendaciones culturales de febrero a pensar el encierro no como castigo, sino como condición cultural y creativa. A partir de libros, películas, música y experiencias personales, Tommaso Koch, Sergio C. Fanjul y Jimena Marcos conversan sobre la posibilidad (y el privilegio) de parar el mundo para pensar, escribir o simplemente... estar. Desde las cabañas de filósofos como Wittgenstein o Heidegger hasta los encierros forzados para componer música o que sirven como inspiración para videojuegos. La conversación se amplía con las aportaciones de la diseñadora gráfica Laura Millán para descubrirnos el “ephemera” en el cine y la periodista Selva Vargas trasladará el debate a otros lenguajes y soportes. ¿Quién puede permitirse el tiempo y el silencio necesarios para crear? ¿qué queda dentro y fuera del encierro? Algunas de las recomendaciones que encontrarás en el podcast: Coloquio de invierno (Tusquets) de Luis Landero Los ensayos (Editorial Acantilado) de Michel de Montaigne suma noche (Ediciones Godall) de Blanca Morel El videojuego Blue Prince Un cuarto propio conectado: (ciber) espacio y (auto)gestión del yo (Fórcola Ediciones) de Remedios Zafra Saída Game de Arthur Moura Campos CRÉDITOS: Realizan: Tommaso Koch y Jimena Marcos Diseño de sonido: Nicolás Tsabertidis Coordina: José Juan Morales Dirige: Ana Alonso Sintonía: Jorge Magaz Si tienes quejas, dudas o sugerencias, escribe a defensora@elpais.es o manda un audio a +34 649362138 (no atiende llamadas).

To learn about The Freedom Project - Click here Two thinkers “arrive” right away: Ludwig Wittgenstein (Austria, philosopher of language) and Epictetus (Greek Stoic, formerly enslaved). Their combined theme becomes the episode's core message: abundance and freedom don't respond to self-improvement—they respond to present-moment participation, and the language we use either keeps us in “now” or pushes us into fear-based “later.” Wittgenstein's thread focuses on how our sentences shape our reality. He points out that many spiritual and abundance struggles are reinforced by everyday grammar: “I'm not ready,” “I'm not healed,” “I must become something else.” These are described as grammatical habits that turn life into a test to pass. Abundance (money, time, health, love) doesn't show up when we “deserve it” or “fix ourselves”—it shows up when we stop managing it with fear and engage with what's here. Epictetus brings a steady, immovable energy and reframes freedom as the absence of inner argument with life. He shares the Stoic insight that suffering isn't primarily caused by circumstances, but by the internal insistence: “This shouldn't be happening.” Freedom, he says, is not growth but subtraction—not becoming more powerful, but noticing where we've been giving power away (waiting for conditions to improve, needing certainty, money, approval) and simply stopping. The conversation then turns practical around money. The guides suggest money feels uniquely “heavy” because we use it to answer a future-based question: “Will I be okay later?” Unlike health, relationships, or time (experienced in the present), money is often used as emotional insurance—asked to provide safety, which “isn't its job.” The episode offers a language-based reframe: shift from future-security sentences to present-usefulness. A key line: stop asking money to protect you from time. They also address the belief in “sources of money” (job, investments, rentals) as a  limiter: the true source is you, via inspiration and participation. Scarcity is framed less as “not enough money” and more as fear of letting it move—guarding rather than participating. Finally, they connect abundance and freedom as essentially parallel states: both are results of alignment and present-moment engagement. Freedom is “living as cause, not effect,” and abundance is “having what you need when you need it to do what needs doing”—both emerge when we stop requiring conditions to be different before we allow peace.

The fourth episode in our season of live recordings from the Regent Street Cinema is about another film that explores the relationship between biography and philosophy: Derek Jarman's Wittgenstein (1993), which tells the story of an extraordinary life in a way that is both light and profound. David talks to writer and philosopher Nikhil Krishnan about Ludwig Wittengenstein's ideas of war, science, truth, freedom, sexuality, language, loyalty and communism and how they are portrayed on screen.

Today's episode in our season of live recordings from the Regent Street Cinema looks at the biopic of a revolutionary: Margaretha von Trotta's Rosa Luxemburg (1986), which explores the deeply unstable relationship between the personal and the political. David talks to writer and philosopher Lea Ypi (Free, Indignity) about where biography ends and philosophy begins and whether revolutionary politics requires the leading of a revolutionary life. What was Rosa Luxemburg's true cause? Who or what betrayed her and her ideas? And how does her legacy live on?

Wittgenstein wrote: “If a lion could talk, we would not understand it”. That is, as lions and humans are not of the same material, they could not say anything meaningful to each other. AI is not like us; the only way we can have a relationship with it is for us to become like it. We will look at how digital services are already making us machine-like; and, we explore how advanced AI-human fusions may undo our essential “humanness”.This lecture was recorded by Matt Jones on the 25rd of November 2025 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.Matt Jones is a computer scientist at Swansea University - and a Fellow of the British Computer Society - who works alongside colleagues from many other disciplines and directly with everyday folk across the world to explore the future of digital technologies. Over the last 30-plus years, this human-centred approach has led to novel approaches for, amongst other things,  mobile phone-based information searching and browsing, pedestrian navigation, voice assistants and deformable displays.  The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/ai-assimilationGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

🎙️ Estimados oyentes y mecenas: En el episodio de hoy continuamos nuestro recorrido por la obra de Ludwig Wittgenstein, adentrándonos en la etapa del llamado segundo Wittgenstein. Abordaremos su retorno a la filosofía, el surgimiento de la teoría de los juegos de lenguaje y su concepción de la filosofía como terapia lingüística, destinada a disolver confusiones más que a construir sistemas. Cerramos el episodio examinando diversas críticas a esta perspectiva desde varios marcos metafísicos —como el tradicionalismo o el idealismo— que cuestionan los límites y alcances de su propuesta.

🎙️ Estimados oyentes y mecenas: En este episodio continuamos nuestra exploración del pensamiento de Ludwig Wittgenstein, adentrándonos en la dimensión más “mística” del Tractatus, esa zona fronteriza donde el lenguaje calla y, sin embargo, algo esencial se muestra. Examinaremos también la interpretación no neopositivista de la obra, que permite comprenderla no como un tratado científico, sino como un intento de señalar los límites del decir para dejar espacio a lo inexpresable. Cerramos el episodio con la lectura de un fragmento del Tractatus y de una carta de Wittgenstein a uno de sus editores, en la que se revelan claves íntimas de su intención filosófica.

He is the author of several books, the most recent one being Pessimism, Quietism and Nature as Refuge. In this episode, we focus on Pessimism, Quietism and Nature as Refuge. We start by discussing what is misanthropy, what is pessimism, and how pessimism combines with misanthropy. We talk about the human condition, and whether it can be improved. We then get into quietism, nature as refuge, and preserving nature.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Dans ce numéro du magazine IDÉES, Pierre-Édouard Deldique reçoit Elise Marrou. Professeure de philosophie contemporaine et d'histoire de la philosophie moderne à l'Université Paris-Sorbonne, elle nous propose une lecture synthétique et pédagogique de l'œuvre de Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951), figure centrale de la philosophie contemporaine, dans un «Que sais-je», aux PUF. Elise Marrou / Cairn info. Philosophe du langage, mathématicien, ingénieur, Wittgenstein est présenté comme un penseur à la fois rigoureux et singulier dont la trajectoire intellectuelle échappe aux classifications simplistes. «Considéré comme l'un des plus grands penseurs du XXè siècle, Wittgenstein n'a publié que deux ouvrages, le «Tractatus logico-philosophicus» et les «Recherches philosophiques» qui, chacun à leur manière, ont provoqué une révolution philosophique profonde», écrit-elle. Non, dit-elle, contrairement à ce que l'on dit souvent de lui, il n'a pas tué la philosophie Bien au contraire car, ajoute-t-elle : «Si nous prenons réellement la peine de nous immerger dans l'œuvre du philosophe viennois, nous nous trouvons confrontés à un philosophe au service des problèmes de la philosophie comme personne peut-être ne l'a été avant lui» ; Au cours de l'émission, et au fil des pages de cet ouvrage utile pour quiconque veut comprendre ce penseur, Elise Marrou insiste sur le double moment de la pensée wittgensteinienne : celle du «Tractatus logico-philosophicus», où le langage est conçu comme un miroir du monde, et celle des «Recherches philosophiques», où la signification devient affaire d'usage et de pratiques sociales. Cette évolution, loin d'être une contradiction, est interprétée comme une radicalisation du projet initial : clarifier les confusions philosophiques en examinant les formes de vie et les jeux de langage. L'auteure déconstruit les slogans souvent associés à Wittgenstein — «la signification, c'est l'usage», «ce dont on ne peut parler, il faut le taire» — pour en restituer la profondeur. Elle montre comment il nous propose une nouvelle manière de faire de la philosophie : non en construisant des systèmes, mais en dissipant les malentendus nés de l'usage du langage. «Le philosophe se remémore l'usage ordinaire des mots afin de les reconduire de leur usage métaphysique à leur usage ordinaire». L'ouvrage met en lumière l'impact de Wittgenstein dans le monde des idées. Elise Marrou souligne que des notions comme «coutume», «institution», ou «forme de vie» permettent de penser les pratiques humaines sans recourir à des abstractions métaphysiques. Cette transversalité est au centre du livre : elle montre que Wittgenstein n'est pas seulement un philosophe du langage, mais un penseur de la culture, des usages, et des formes de rationalité incarnées. Dans ce numéro d'IDÉES et dans cet ouvrage, Elise Marrou nous propose une synthèse accessible et rigoureuse. En évitant les simplifications, elle invite les auditeurs et les lecteurs à entrer dans le détail des textes, tout en fournissant les repères nécessaires pour naviguer dans une pensée réputée à juste titre difficile.

🎙️ Estimados oyentes y mecenas: En el episodio de hoy nos acercamos a la figura de Ludwig Wittgenstein, discípulo aventajado de Bertrand Russell y una de las mentes más enigmáticas y decisivas de la filosofía contemporánea. Repasaremos su biografía y su peculiar recorrido vital, y nos centraremos en las tesis fundamentales del Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, donde se plantea la relación entre realidad, pensamiento y lenguaje y el célebre límite según el cual “de lo que no se puede hablar, es mejor callar”. Gracias por acompañarme una vez más en este viaje intelectual y por el apoyo constante que sostiene este proyecto. 📗ÍNDICE 0. Resúmenes iniciales. VIDA 1. TESIS FUNDAMENTALES 2.

For the final episode in this series David talks to historian Ayse Zarakol about the prospects for democracy in the age of strongman politics, from Trump to Erdogan, from Orban to Modi. Where did the strongmen come from? How unusual is this kind of politics in the broad sweep of history? Does democracy have the wherewithal to resist its pull? And if not, what happens next? The 4th film in our autumn season at the Regent Street Cinema in London is coming up on Wednesday 5th November: a screening of Derek Jarman's Wittgenstein followed by a live recording of PPF with writer and philosopher Nikhil Krishnan.

Most think that algorithms are the modern root cause of innovations. But says not only are organizations today powered by data, they innovate through data. With several other colleagues, Marta is bringing data studies back to the forefront of information systems research. She produces workshops, a forthcoming book, and an online bibliography with seminal readings. We talk to Marta about the relationship between data and meaning, representation versus innovation, and whether we all soon live in a hyperreality created through synthetic data that lost all connection to the real-world.

Concluding our treatment of The Sources of Normativity. We give Korsgaard's tweaks to Kant, including her distinction between the categorical imperative and the moral law. We then explain her reference to Wittgenstein's private language argument in her argument that reason-giving, and hence morality, can't be merely self-referential.

In 1897, Gustav Klimt led a group of radical artists to break free from the cultural establishment of Vienna and found a movement that became known as the Vienna Secession. In the vibrant atmosphere of coffee houses, Freudian psychoanalysis and the music of Wagner and Mahler, the Secession sought to bring together fine art and music with applied arts such as architecture and design. The movement was characterized by Klimt's stylised paintings, richly decorated with gold leaf, and the art nouveau buildings that began to appear in the city, most notably the Secession Building, which housed influential exhibitions of avant-garde art and was a prototype of the modern art gallery. The Secessionists themselves were pioneers in their philosophy and way of life, aiming to immerse audiences in unified artistic experiences that brought together visual arts, design, and architecture. With:Mark Berry, Professor of Music and Intellectual History at Royal Holloway, University of LondonLeslie Topp, Professor Emerita in History of Architecture at Birkbeck, University of LondonAndDiane Silverthorne, art historian and 'Vienna 1900' scholarProducer: Eliane GlaserReading list:Mark Berry, Arnold Schoenberg: Critical Lives (Reaktion Books, 2018)Gemma Blackshaw, Facing the Modern: The Portrait in Vienna 1900 (National Gallery Company, 2013)Elizabeth Clegg, Art, Design and Architecture in Central Europe, 1890-1920 (Yale University Press, 2006)Richard Cockett, Vienna: How the City of Ideas Created the Modern World (Yale University Press, 2023)Stephen Downes, Gustav Mahler (Reaktion Books, 2025)Peter Gay, Freud, Jews, and Other Germans: Masters and Victims in Modernist Culture (Oxford University Press, 1979)Tag Gronberg, Vienna: City of Modernity, 1890-1914 (Peter Lang, 2007)Allan S.

Today we talk about the late work of Wittgenstein in Philosophical Investigations. We talk about the meaning of words. Augustine's theory. Forms of life. Rules and practices. Grammar. Geometry. Family resemblance. And the role of a philosopher on the other side of accepting this view of language.
