Wittgenstein e a tradição filosófica: aspectos metodológicos

Abstract

One of the main concerns of Ludwig Wittgenstein, already present from his first observations is the autonomy of his own thought. Our objective in this text is to indicate some methodological aspects of the diagnosis and criticism that the Viennese philosopher operates in relation to the Western philosophical tradition with a view to obtaining safe and peaceful results in the controversial universe of philosophy. To do so, we will indicate the importance of recovering the role that the philosophical tradition plays for its own thought, as well as the importance of becoming aware that the main difficulty of philosophy is to be faced with concepts without preconceptions. In addition, we will emphasize the need to overcome human difficulties like that of the will showing in the philosophy of Wittgenstein the presence of the destructive activity of inherited vices, adornments and idols as well as their importance for the investigation of the linguistic conditions of thinking itself.
