  • Who the hell is…? brings you our new Biography Bites – compact biographies of the world’s greatest thinkers.

    This episode tells the life story of Ludwig Wittgenstein. Regarded as the most important philosopher since Kant, Wittgenstein set out to solve all the major problems of philosophy, stating that these arise from misunderstandings of the logic of language. But who was Wittgenstein as a person? Part of a cultured and talented family, Ludwig was however, always uncomfortable in his own skin, contemplating suicide every day of his life. Disliked by some, admired by many, this brilliant man would spend his whole life preoccupied with philosophical problems.

    We hope you enjoy this episode and don't forget to look out for our other biography bites on the world's greatest thinkers!
