Wittgenstein in Brazil: Reverberations and Applications reúne textos que exemplificam aplicações de conceitos operatórios e perspectivas wittgensteinianas em campos diversos, da ética à estética, da filosofia da matemática à filosofia da educação, passando pela teoria da tradução, ciências cognitivas, história da ciência, filosofia do direito, filosofia da mente etc. Um testemunho da vivacidade dessas perspectivas no Brasil, dirigido a um público internacional.

These essays, written by Brazilian scholars, apply Wittgensteinian tools to ethics, law, education, psychology, aesthetics, hermeneutics, the history of science etc. Multiple possibilities pop up in the chapters by way of uses of Wittgenstein: bringing in an illuminating concept (aspect-perception, family resemblance, intermediary links, hinge propositions, panoramic representation and so on) to a particular debate or sub-area, so as to address an impasse of thought; passing theories through the anti-dogmatic test of grammatical therapy by showing where theories or concepts are brought to bear in too far-fetched thoughts they were not designed to express or clarify; etc. A testimony to the vitality and reach of Wittgenstein’s philosophy.
