I decided to create a written record on the advice of Rene Des Cartes, whose "Principles of Philosophy" contains detailed instructions on how to carry on a conversation with the author by reading the work. A web log seemed the modern way to follow his advice.
This log was inspired by "How to Read Wittgenstein" and "Ludwig Wittgenstein: the duty of genius" by Ray Monk. It is based on reading Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus by Ludwig Wittgenstein translated by D. F. Pears & B. F. McGuinness (Routledge and Kegan Paul:1963)
