Review Quotes

"Mauro Engelmann's book is a contribution to middle Wittgenstein studies that we can be most grateful for. ... Engelmann's book should be among the first to be linked directly from Wittgenstein Source, helping to make the Wittgenstein Nachlass more widely used and useable ... . it is Engelmann's achievement to have given us a much better understanding of its meaning and history than has been available before." (Alois Pichler, Journal for the History of Analytical Philosophy, Vol. 4 (3), 2016)
