Wittgenstein: a superação do atomismo lógico

Abstract

Some remarks on logical form” (1929) is the turning point from which Wittgenstein seems to have realized that his Logical Atomism must be overcome. He had presented that philosophical approach on his Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, where he demonstrated how the complex structures are dependent on its atoms. However, in 1929, Wittgenstein realizes that he had neglected an element in his Tractatus, which was the relevance of the numbers in a logical analysis. He realizes that the number must take part on the elementary structures, rejecting, since then, the thesis of the independence of the logial atoms.
