“The gramophone record, the musical thought, the score, the waves of sound, all stand to one another in that pictorial internal relation, which holds between language and the world.To all of them the logical structure is common.(Like the two youths, their two horses and their lilies in the story. They are all in a certain sense one.)”

Austro-British philosopher

Ludwig Josef Johann Wittgenstein was an Austro-British philosopher associated with logic, the philosophy of mathematics, the philosophy of mind, and the philosophy of language. He is known for work that shaped twentieth-century philosophical debate, especially in these fields. His writing centers on how language works, how thought is expressed, and the foundations of reasoning and meaning.
