39th International Wittgenstein Symposium 2016

Aesthetics Today: Contemporary Approaches to the Aesthetics of Nature and of Art

Review

Thanks to all the participants of the 39th International Wittgenstein Symposium and of the 8th Wittgenstein Summerschool (sadly due to the enormous interest we had to turn away many), both events were great successes. On this page, you can find several documents related to the Symposium and/or to the Summerschool. If not made explicit otherwise, all documents and pictures are copyrighted by the Austrian Ludwig Wittgenstein Society.
