-Studies of Wittgenstein’s philosophy today often rely on machine-readable versions of Wittgenstein’s Nachlass. The first version, developed by Claus Huitfeld, was  a set of marked-up and encoded transcriptions of the Nachlass. In 2000, Oxford University Press released the Bergen Electronic Edition which was generated from that database. Alois Pichler, then head of the Wittgenstein Archive in Bergen (WAB), released the Wittgenstein Source Bergen Nachlass Edition (BNE) [wittgensteinsource.org] in 2015 and one year later the Interactive Dynamic Presentation (IDP). As the BNE provides access to the complete scope of Wittgenstein’s philosophical writings it is an important and valuable instrument for research in this field. Thanks to the BNE, Wittgenstein’s work is now within reach of any interested scholar with a computer and access to the internet. However, the BNE transcriptions are almost all in German – the language in which the majority of Wittgenstein’s notebooks, manuscripts, and typescripts were written. We are still lacking a scholarly bilingual version. In our talk we will present the outlines of a translation project that aims at a first-time English translation of Wittgenstein’s manuscript volumes 1929-1932 (MS 105-114, 31r) in collaboration with the WAB which will provide entirely free and open access to them.
+I will present a work in progress website that aims to create a digital tool to visualize the links between philosophical texts, in particular, the explicit and implicit references that a philosophical work makes to previous works. The project involves a team of engineers on the one hand, and on the other hand teachers and researchers in philosophy, specializing in an author or a work, who identify, in each text, the implicit and explicit references to other works, and justify their choice. It is a collaborative project: for each reference identified by a contributor, it will be possible for other specialists to open a discussion to comment on the reference, add new elements to confirm the connection, or debate around the identified reference in case of disagreement on the link. The discussion aims at generating community criteria for establishing different degrees of connectedness between texts. The final product will offer students and researchers a unique visualization of the history of philosophy in the form of a “Great Conversation”, an aid to the study of the most difficult texts, and will allow for the valorization of the work of historians of philosophy. The proof of concept is on the ''Philosophical Investigations'' by Ludwig Wittgenstein.
