Bøger i Cambridge Studies in Literature and Philosophy serien

"The Introduction offers a brief overview of why Wittgenstein has come to matter to contemporary literary studies and philosophical work on literature. In addition to explaining what "literary Wittgensteinianism" is, it provides a point of entry into the chapters of this volume by explaining the basic difference between the "early" and "late" Wittgenstein and how each has opened up novel ways of thinking about the relationship between philosophy and literature"--

"The volume shows how both the distinction and connection between literature and poetry is staged within Heidegger's thought. It offers Heidegger's perspective on a range of key themes, topics, poets, and writers, including Friedrich Hèolderlin, Thomas Mann, Paul Celan, Euripides and Sophocles"--
