From Logical Form To Mysterious Object

It is clear that Wittgenstein's philosophy can be simply divided into two parts:early philosophy and late philosophy.The former is mainly related to the school of logical analysis and the school of artificial linguistics in analytical philosophy,while the latter is mainly related to the school of everyday linguistics in analytical philosophy.Russell and Moore are important representatives of the two styles of philosophy,and they have had a key impact on the formation of Wittgenstein's philosophy.Wittgenstein's early philosophy emphasizes essential ism,which advocates the theory of language game and theory of meaning as usage.Of course,some of Wittgenstein's early philosophical clues are not completely unchanged.For example,Wittgenstein focused on the important object of thought of the unspeakable in his earlier period.Initially,in the earliest logical notes and oral notes to Moore,the unspeakable mainly refers to the logical form.Logical form is the common thing of proposition,language,facts and the world.Because propositions and facts are isomorphic,that is,they share a common logical structure,propositions can represent facts through logical images of facts.Later,in the war notes and the theory of logical philosophy,the unspeakable still includes the so-called logical form,but more importantly,the meaning of the unspeakable has been added.That is to say,the unspeakable also includes mysterious things,ethics and aesthetics.Especially the mysterious things have a distinct transcendental color.Therefore,what cannot be said is mainly related to the existence of logical form in the empirical world.Wittgenstein emphasizes that logical form is not said but can be shown.Although it is not entirely equal to experience,it is empirical and closely related to experience.Logical form is the prerequisite of experience.It can be seen that the meaning of unspeakable things is not always the same.What cannot be said at first is only the non-mysterious existence in the empirical world.Later,the content of the unspeakable added transcendence and mystery.This is a critical change in thinking.It is impossible to simply equate the unutterable with the mysterious.Mysterious things can not be said,but what can not be said is not necessarily mysterious.This change of thought means that Wittgenstein's philosophy and metaphysics have undergone key changes.It reflects two different conceptual systems of ontology and abstract metaphysics.The core work of this article is to examine this great change in thought and the subsequent change in the connotation of upper metaphysics.Furthermore,the key factors contributing to this internal change of Wittgenstein's philosophy in the early stage also need to be explored and discussed.Wittgenstein has clearly grasped the ontology of language for the first time in the analytic philosophy camp,and has given full answers to the expressive function of language in the form of logical image theory.All the articles will clarify and present these contents positively.Wittgenstein's unique metaphysics in the early stage is rich in implications,and we will get some enlightening analysis on it.It should be pointed out that Wittgenstein is not a complete rejector of metaphysics.He cherishes unspeakable but revealablc metaphysics,that is,metaphysics about mysterious things.This is obviously different from the views of Carnap and others of the Vienna School on metaphysics.
