Rudolf Haller is one of Austria's foremost authorities on both Wittgenstein and contemporary Austrian philosophy. In this book Professor Haller brings his experience to bear on a matter of vital philosophical importance: Wittgenstein's relationship to his Austrian predecessors and peers. The topic is one which is of particular interest to Anglo-Saxon philosophers. It takes a special feeling and familiarity with Austrian philosophy, however, to appreciate the subtle and profound influence which this cultural and philosophical setting had on Wittgenstein's intellectual development. Professor Haller has spent his career exploring these themes, and now for the first time, many of his most important papers on this subject are printed in English. The reader is thus offered a unique insight into the twentieth-century tradition of Austrian philosophy, and the influence which this had on Wittgenstein's thought.
