Resumo: In The Oxford Handbook of Wittgenstein, Michael Potter’s essay ‘Wittgenstein on mathematics’ offers not only an analysis on why Wittgenstein’s philosophy of mathematics is so controversial among philosophers and mathematicians but also justifies such controversy. For that purpose, Potter emphasizes that Wittgenstein’s discussions on math are unfinished. This article sheds light on some inconsistencies and contradictions pertaining Wittgenstein’s mathematic thoughts which, although reinforcing the decade-long criticism on the author, did not interest scholars as much as Wittgenstein’s comments on Kurt Gödel’s incompleteness theorems and his dialogues with Alan Turing on the foundations of mathematics.

Com esse intuito, Potter enfatiza o caráter inacabado das reflexões de Wittgenstein sobre a matemática. Neste artigo, tem-se por objetivo explicitar algumas inconsistências e contradições no pensamento matemático de Wittgenstein que ratificam as críticas que esse autor vem recebendo há décadas, mas que não tiveram a mesma atenção dos especialistas que os comentários de Wittgenstein sobre os teoremas da incompletude de Kurt Gödel e suas discussões com Alan Turing sobre os fundamentos da matemática.Universidade Federal do Recôncavo da Bahia2018-06-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-ReviewedEvaluados por los paresAvaliados pelos paresapplication/pdfhttp://www3.ufrb.edu.br/seer/index.php/griot/article/view/80610.31977/grirfi.v17i1.806Griot : Revista de Filosofia; v. 17 n. 1 (2018); 97-1132178-1036reponame:Griot : Revista de Filosofiainstname:Universidade Federal do Recôncavo na Bahia (UFRB)instacron:UFRBporhttp://www3.ufrb.edu.br/seer/index.php/griot/article/view/806/519Copyright (c) 2018 Gustavo Augusto Fonseca Silvainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Gustavo Augusto Fonseca2020-06-30T18:14:56Zoai:seer.www.ufrb.edu.br:article/806Revistahttp://www.ufrb.edu.br/griot/PUBhttp://www3.ufrb.edu.br/seer/index.php/griot/oai||griotrevista@gmail.com2178-10362178-1036opendoar:2020-06-30T18:14:56Griot : Revista de Filosofia - Universidade Federal do Recôncavo na Bahia (UFRB)false
