This thesis will explore some of the literature around aspects of his work that are less referenced, though equally important: ethics and the nature of the philosophical enterprise. This review of a portion of the surrounding literature, along with exegesis of the early texts with these particular aspects in mind, will contribute to a broader understanding of Wittgenstein as an ethical thinker.en-USPhilosophyEthicsPhilosophyWittgensteinThesis/Dissertation2018-11-07
