The expression of his eyes remained the same: a cold, piercing sadness. Yet his final words were, "Tell them I had a happy life." This poetic book examines the way Ludwig Wittgenstein has influenced artists and writers beyond his own field, thereby touching the subject of how philosophy can be relevant at large. Carefully illustrated with work by Leif Haglund, Doug Hall, and Muriel Wood-Ponzecchi, Rothenberg situates Wittgenstein in the age of the soundbite and the artistic fragment, promoting an aesthetic of detachment just as he seeks to find a route through the sea of churning ideas that mark our time.
