thomas basbøll, wittgenstein

Thomas Basbøll has posted some terrific comments in response to my questions and objections on the Wittgenstein/Tractatus conversation taking place on Gary Norris' Dagzine. The following really made me smile:

The world is everything that is the case.
The totality of facts.

History is everyone that is on my case.
The totality of acts.

(Hope he doesn't mind me posting that). Interesting thoughts, too, on the difference between "remarks" and "propositions", and German-English translation difficulties. Thanks, Thomas.
