Description: This course is not conceived as a generic “Introduction to Wittgenstein,” but as a distinctive contribution aimed at students, researchers, and independent thinkers interested in engaging with Wittgenstein’s philosophy through an explicitly authorial lens.Rather than rehearsing canonical arguments of analytic philosophy as static material, the course reconfigures them through variations and reinterpretations crafted by the instructor. It is directed to philosophy students familiar with analytic debates, but also to non-specialists willing to experience Wittgenstein as a singular event of thought — one that continues to shape how we understand language, meaning, and the fragile border between logic and life.Ultimately, this course proposes a path where learning canonical arguments is inseparable from discovering new perspectives, offering not only interpretation but invention — a philosophical exercise that treats Wittgenstein as both a guide and a provocation for contemporary reflection.The course resists the passivity of conventional introductions. Each lecture is designed as a provocation, encouraging students to test the boundaries of meaning and logic for themselves. The result is an encounter with philosophy that is at once rigorous, interpretive, and unmistakably authorial in character. It invites learners to approach Wittgenstein not as repetition, but as invention — a challenge to think alongside, not after him.Course features:Each video-essay-lesson is followed by an on-camera commentary from the instructor, offering additional insights and connections.Every module includes a downloadable PDF with selected readings and articles authored by the instructor, allowing participants to deepen their study beyond the video lectures.Author’s note and credits:The instructor, Dr. Lucas Vollet, holds a Ph.D. in Philosophy with international research experience and has published peer-reviewed articles in journal
