If we read Ludwig Wittgenstein’s works and take his scientific formation in mathematical logic into account, it comes as a surprise that he ever developed a particular interest in anthropological questions. The following questions immediately arise: What role does anthropology play in Wittgenstein’s work? How do problems concerning mankind as a whole relate to his philosophy? The aim of this book is to investigate the anthropological questions that Wittgenstein raised in his works. The answers to the questions may be found on the intersection between forms of life and radical translation from another culture into ours.
