This volume initiates an inquiry into the relationship between Ludwig Wittgenstein's analytic stance towards philosophy and the inherently apophatic nature of his epistemology, a subject that has been repeatedly hinted at, but hitherto never thoroughly researched through this particular hermeneutical lens.
