Resumen
VINTEN, Robert. Interpretaciones de Wittgenstein por marxistas ingleses: una crítica. Tópicos [online]. 2017, n.33, pp.112-135. ISSN 1666-485X.
Perry Anderson, Alex Callinicos, and Terry Eagleton have all produced excellent cultural and philosophical work. However, all three have misinterpreted the work of Ludwig Wittgenstein. Wittgenstein's conception of philosophy is not in tension with Marxist philosophy in the ways that they suggest and Wittgenstein did not make the errors attributed to him by Anderson, Callinicos, and Eagleton. Marxists would benefit from taking Wittgenstein's work more seriously because it would help them to see the nature of epistemological and metaphysical problems more clearly and would complement and enrich their own accounts of philosophical confusion. In this paper, I will examine errors in their interpretations of Wittgenstein and I also hope to give some hint of why it is that Wittgenstein is regarded by many as the greatest philosopher of the twentieth century.
