| description | This article stems from the need to shed a different light on the person and
writings of Ludwig Wittgenstein, a renowned Austrian thinker, who many
people see as one of the greatest contemporary philosophers. An image of
Wittgenstein as the predecessor of the logical positivism and one of the
founders of analytical philosophy is present in the scientific world. From
this some draw an assumption that he thought of religion as senseless as
many of these philosophers or refused to talk about it at all. In contrary to
such a view, this article presents, with valid arguments, a viewfrom which
it is clearly visible that his whole life was driven by a religious impulse,
which determined its most part and set its direction. Although he was a
member of no religious confession, he looked at every problem from a religious
point of view. This is presented through three thematic units of the
article. The first will be dealing with the religious background of Wittgenstein’s
life, the second will present the attitudes to religion and the third
will consider viewpoints of some known philosophers on this issue. |
