Wittgenstein in digital form: Perspectives for the future

A series of important digital resources for Wittgenstein research haveappeared over the last 10 years. A brief history of these developments isgiven and a look taken at new resources which are likely to follow. A guessat the consequences of these developments for Wittgenstein research is made. Since these digital resources for Wittgenstein scholarship are uniquein the humanities, research in this area may well foreshadow possibilities inthe humanities generally. The hope is expressed that this may decrease theunfortunate isolation of the humanities from the wider society around themwith beneficial results for both sides.
