维特根斯坦传：天才之为责任
编辑推荐： 《维特根斯坦传:天才之为责任》是哲学家维特根斯坦的生平传记。与其他相关传记不同的是，《维特根斯坦传:天才之为责任》较多的设计到维特根斯坦的生活和个性方面，因而不只是维特根斯坦的研究者，普通对哲学感兴趣的读者也能从中获得丰富、深入的阅读体验。媒体推荐蒙克的《维特根斯坦传》丰富、深入、好读，公认为维特根斯坦的最佳传记，在我看，实是思想家传记中少见的佳作，不仅向我们展现了这位伟大思想家的深刻的灵魂生活，而且有助于我们理解他的哲学思想。译者王宇光中英文俱佳，不辜负原著。 ——陈嘉映蒙克的这本传记运笔深透，对普通读者也丰盛可口……一个美妙生命的一幅美妙肖像。 ——《卫报》 作者简介作者：(英国)瑞蒙克 (Ray Monk) 译者：王宇光瑞蒙克(Ray Monk)，南安普顿大学教授，研究领域包括数学哲学、分析哲学的历史，并长期致力于哲学家传记写作。1991年蒙克因《维特根斯坦传：天才之为责任》获得达夫库珀奖(Duff Cooper Prize)。目录：致谢序第一部分 1889-1919第一章 自我毁灭的试验场第二章 曼彻斯特第三章 罗素的爱徒第四章 罗素的导师第五章 挪威第六章 火线之后第七章 在前线第二部分 1919-1928第八章 印不出的真理

在好几个地方看到过这本书的推荐，赞美之词溢于言表，近来又对哲学开始产生兴趣，听说维特根斯坦也是有名的难懂，想通过这本传记先做一点铺垫再来细品他的书。然而再自己读过之后，略带失望。本书中文版长达600多页，60多万字，作者按时间线对各种信件、札记的引述相当丰富，能详细完整的展现一个真实的维特根斯坦。但也许是因为我并没有读过LW的论著，这本传记读起来还是很难「进入」，更麻烦的是那些引用LW哲学思想的话也因为第一次见到，经常看的不明就里。反倒是他的一些私生活更能满足我的八卦癖。也许在将来某天能细品LW的书时，还能回看这本书，找一些阅读线索。
尽管如此，当读到最后时LW的临终之言：「告诉他们，我度过了极好的一生」仍不免泪盈眶。

Obviously, it took me almost five months to finish the book. It's the longest biography I've ever finished. One day, if I am ever asked about the books that are most important to me, I believe this will be one of them.
There are no short phrases to summarize the book. Wittgenstein had said too much, done too many. But his weakness, his recognition of his weakness, and his golden heart are as impressive as his intelligence.
The translation is decent. But I feel the translator was in over his head when translating some technical content. Still, it's respectable that he included the original text when he was not confident enough.
May not be a book for everyone, but for me, a masterpiece. However, it's hard to say whether it's the book or Wittgenstein's life.
