Tractatus

The *Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus*, written by Ludwig Wittgenstein, is a philosophical work exploring the relationship between language, reality, and what can be meaningfully said. It proposes that language functions by mirroring the world through propositions that picture facts. The book aims to identify the limits of meaningful discussion, suggesting that many philosophical problems arise from misunderstandings about language. Wittgenstein concludes that issues beyond the limits of language are silent—meaning they cannot be meaningfully expressed or examined—highlighting how language both clarifies and constrains our understanding of reality.
