Some Austrian newspapers defended the madman, while Nelbck himself argued in court that his onetime teacher had promoted a treacherous Jewish philosophy. David Edmonds traces the rise and fall of the Vienna Circlean influential group of brilliant thinkers led by Schlickand of a philosophical movement that sought to do away with metaphysics and pseudoscience in a city darkened by fascism, anti-Semitism, and unreason.The Vienna Circles members included Otto Neurath, Rudolf Carnap, and the eccentric logician Kurt Gdel. On its fringes were two other philosophical titans of the twentieth century, Ludwig Wittgenstein and Karl Popper. The Circle championed the philosophy of logical empiricism, which held that only two types of propositions have cognitive meaning, those that can be verified through experience and those that are analytically true. For a time, it was the most fashionable movement in philosophy. Yet by the outbreak of World War II, Schlicks group had disbanded and almost all its members had fled. Edmonds reveals why the Austro-fascists and the Nazis saw their philosophy as such a threat.The Murder of Professor Schlick paints an unforgettable portrait of the Vienna Circle and its members while weaving an enthralling narrative set against the backdrop of economic catastrophe and rising extremism in Hitlers Europe....2465006The Murder of Professor Schlick265368https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-murder-of-professor-schlick-9780691185842/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3341305/b082f9d6-1413-408c-810f-ff518e337a85.jpg?v=638385235055130000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20209780691185842_W3siaWQiOiJmYzVjZDk1ZS05NWVjLTQ0NzAtYjNhZi05MGQyODMxMDZkY2IiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjM1OSwiZGlzY291bnQiOjEwMSwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjoyNTgsImluY2x1ZGVzVGF4Ijp0cnVlLCJwcmljZVR5cGUiOiJXaG9sZXNhbGUiLCJjdXJyZW5jeSI6Ik1YTiIsImZyb20iOiIyMDI0LTEyLTAxVDAwOjAwOjAwWiIsInJlZ2lvbiI6Ik1YIiwiaXNQcmVvcmRlciI6ZmFsc2V9XQ==9780691185842_From the author of Wittgensteins Poker and Would You Kill the Fat Man?, the story of an extraordinary group of philosophers during a dark chapter in Europes historyOn June 22, 1936, the philosopher Moritz Schlick was on his way to deliver a lecture at the University of Vienna when Johann Nelbck, a deranged former student of Schlicks, shot him dead on the university steps.
