Wittgenstein and Classical German Philosophy: Self-consciousness and Self-reference
We are glad to invite you to the workshop “Wittgenstein and Classical German Philosophy: Self-consciousness and Self-reference” that will take place at the University of Barcelona from 21 to 23 September 2022.
Like the previous conferences “Wittgenstein and Hegel: Reevaluation of Difference” (TU Dresden,
2017), “Hegel and Wittgenstein: Negativity and Language” (Charles University in Prague, 2019), and
“Wittgenstein and Classical German Philosophy” (University of Warsaw, 2021), the workshop in Barcelona aims to foster a dialogue between the Classical German Philosophy and the Wittgenstein scholarship.
The workshop focuses on two topics of utmost importance in the German Philosophical Tradition from Kant to Hegel and from Hegel to Wittgenstein: self-consciousness and self-reference. However, we would also like to cover these topics in the immediate criticism of Classical German Philosophy, especially in Schopenhauer, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, and Marx.
