Wittgenstein’s philosophy is directly related to the semiotic discipline to understand the signs, their processes, and signalling. Wittgenstein’s nervous system was a semiotic model of control and power to make choices. To examine this critical question, Wittgenstein & Semiotics discusses the cultural climate of Wittgenstein to follow (or not) the classics, Saussure and Peirce. His word-play reflects historically how modern society transfigured the disasters of two World Wars into belief and action to meet with Wittgenstein’s linguistic reaction. Wittgenstein’s polemical style reflected the Zeitgeist of a new structure of writing philosophy based on the special force of semiotics. By coding and decoding one message to another, Wittgenstein saw how the exchanges of signs are carried out to renew cultural society. His linguistic sign functions in direct speech to interpret the structure of signs into the signification to the readers. Wittgenstein’s use of semiotics contributed to the cultural technique of the growth of interdisciplinary fields in scholarly disciplines, both humanistic and scientific, which Wittgenstein’s “free” speech enjoys today.

Carlo Cattaneo was one of the most prominent Italian intellectuals of the nineteenth century. Known for his prominent role in the Five Days of Milan uprising in 1848, he combined a vivid intelligence with a reform-oriented mind and a strong civic passion. This volume offers an exhaustive selection of Cattaneo’s writings, which cover a wide range of issues and advance highly innovative theories, such as the achievement of republican federalism in Italy and Europe, thought as a principle of political economy, and the psychology of associated mind. The two introductory essays examine how his ideas developed through the time and argue for their enduring vitality

A persistent challenge in philosophy is constructing an explicit link between mind and external reality. In this regard, this book introduces and examines two opposing philosophies. It scrutinizes Brandom's inferentialist solution, encompassinging his influential work Making It Explicit (1994) and his controversial interpretation of Hegel as a conceptual realist in A Spirit of Trust (2019). Constrastingly, it introduces Hegel’s relativist historicism, arguing that a robust epistemological framework does not necessitate an explicit link to mind-independent reality. By confining knowledge to its historical context, it prevents adherence to false beliefs, maintaining openness for truth to emerge one day.

Ausgehend von den zentralen Grundgedanken der Hegelschen Philosophie greift dieser Band die brennendsten intellektuellen Herausforderungen unserer Zeit in den verschiedensten Bereichen auf – von der Logik bis zur Philosophie des Rechts, von der Philosophie der Geschichte bis zur Robotik, von der Ästhetik bis zur Ökologie – und versucht, die heutige Relevanz der Hegelschen Philosophie argumentativ zu belegen. Die Kontexte, in denen die Konzepte, Prinzipien und Paradigmen der Hegelschen Philosophie produktiv werden können, sind vielfältig und entscheidend für ein angemessenes Verständnis unserer disharmonischen Gegenwart.
