Abstract
Prestándole especial atención a sus reflexiones en torno a la estética, en este artículo se sostiene que Wittgenstein, en su última obra, lejos de rechazar la cuestión de lo trascendente de su discurso filosófico como usualmente se lo lee, intenta más bien recuperar y darle un nuevo sentido a esa problemática, respondiendo así a una necesidad real de la filosofía que se sigue definiendo, aún en nuestro siglo, por criterios de conocimiento que no le pertenecen. En particular, se arguye que el recurso wittgensteiniano a la invención de casos intermedios e historias naturales ficticias logra este objetivo al activar mediante su introducción de la imaginación modos diferentes de conciencia, que permiten reubicar lo trascendente en el pensar filosófico sin necesidad de recurrir a un ámbito sobrenatural ni a un conocimiento místico.
Paying special attention to his reflections on a esthetics, it is held in this paper that the later Wittgenstein, far from rejecting the "transcendent" from his philosophical discourse as he is usually read, aims rather at recovering it and giving it a new meaning. He thus responds to a real need in the philosophical thought that continues to define itself, even in this century, in terms of criteria of knowledge that are alíen to it. Specifically, it is argued that the Wittgensteinian recourse to the invention of intermediatec ases and fictional natural histories achieves this goal by activating other modes of awareness that relocate the transcendent within philosophical thinking without appealing neither to the supernatural realm nor to a mystical knowledge or insight.
