Abstract :
[en] Just like Kant, Wittgenstein believes that the world (we know) gets its forms from the thought through which it is known. But, like Frege and Russell and unlike Kant, the author of the Tractatus logico-philosophicus claims that in logic alone (which is analytic rather than both synthetic and a priori) lies the ‘reason of the world’. The latter Wittgenstein, however, will assign more importance to the rationality which lies in ordinary language and in its use. Language rather than logic is transcendental.
