    Language and Solitude: Wittgenstein, Malinowski and the Habsburg Dilemma

    Language and Solitude: Wittgenstein, Malinowski and the Habsburg Dilemma

    Ernest Gellner, "Language and Solitude: Wittgenstein, Malinowski and the Habsburg Dilemma"
    English | ISBN: 0521639972 | | 230 pages | PDF | 895 KB

    Ernest Gellner (1925-1995) has been described as "one of the last great central European polymath intellectuals." In this, his last book, he throws new light on two key figures of the twentieth century: the philosopher Wittgenstein, and Malinowski, founder of modern British social anthropology. Gellner shows how the thought of both men grew from a common background of assumptions about human nature, society, and language. He ties together themes that preoccupied him, epitomizing his belief that philosophy–far from "leaving everything as it is"–is about important historical, social and personal issues.
