Volume 7 of the Vienna Edition, together with Volume 8 (Synopsis of
Volumes V to X), now makes available for the first time Wittgenstein's
first of two revisions of his manuscripts for their intended
publication. Volume 7 contains two typoscripts, the first of which also
represents the textual basis of the posthumously published Philosophical
Remarks (Philosophische Bemerkungen) and only exists as a fragment; it
was reconstructed from the sources for this volume. The volume will be
of particular interest for Wittgenstein research, as it is instrumental
in order to correct some of the misguided speculations on Philosophical
Remarks arising from the extensive secondary literature on Philosophical
Remarks.
