Ludwig Wittgenstein, an Austrian philosopher, is well-known for his contributions in logic, mathematics, mind, and language philosophy. He taught at the University of Cambridge from 1929 to 1947. Wittgenstein’s notable works include the “Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus,” published in 1921, and the “Philosophical Investigations,” released posthumously in 1953. Over time, his philosophy shifted from a focus on logic and propositions to a greater emphasis on language use. Wittgenstein also had diverse professional experiences beyond academia, such as serving in World War I and working in hospitals during World War II.
