Ludwig Josef Johann Wittgenstein was an Austrian-British philosopher born on April 26, 1889. He is regarded as one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century, particularly known for his work in logic, the philosophy of language, and the philosophy of mind. Wittgenstein's major works include the "Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus," published in 1921, and the posthumously published "Philosophical Investigations" (1953), which presented a departure from his earlier views. His ideas have had a profound impact on various fields, including philosophy, logic, linguistics, and cognitive science. Wittgenstein's work continues to be studied and debated by scholars worldwide.
