Nana Last: Wittgenstein's House: Language, Space and Architecture (2008)
Nana Last’s recently published text Wittgenstein’s House is a noteworthy synthesis of Wittgenstein's philosophy with the subject of architecture. In this text Last describes Wittgenstein's writing as inherently spatial in both his early and late work. She argues that the apparent transition from the Tratatus to the Philosophical Investigations was directly influenced by Wittgenstein's engagement with architecture in the design and building of the Kundmanngasse. This shift in his later work, as Last explains, replaces idealism and solipsism found in his earlier work, and was one that actually allowed for multiplicity in 'spatial territory' as opposed to any essentialist definition.
