This article discusses two aspects of Wittgenstein's Jewish heritage. First, we try to show that Wittgenstein was acutely aware of his own Jewish heritage and especially concerned about its potential influence on his work. Second, we suggest that the form of his work, specifically, his method of inquiry and the peculiar literary character of his work, bear a striking resemblance to that of Hebrew Talmud. Like other assimilated Jews of Central Europe, Wittgenstein may have been directly or indirectly exposed to Hebraic culture and Talmudic logic. An understanding of Wittgenstein's Jewish heritage provides an important and neglected perspective on his work.
本文探讨了维特根斯坦的犹太传统的两个方面。首先，我们试图表明，维特根斯坦敏锐地意识到自己的犹太传统，尤其关注其对自身作品可能产生的影响。其次，我们认为他作品的形式，具体而言，其探究方法以及作品独特的文学特质，与希伯来《塔木德》极为相似。和其他中欧的同化犹太人一样，维特根斯坦可能直接或间接地接触过希伯来文化和塔木德逻辑。理解维特根斯坦的犹太传统为审视其作品提供了一个重要却被忽视的视角。
