| Description |
This paper attempts to delve into Wittgenstein's unique notion of solipsism and its centrality in his proposal of transcendental ethics. Ethics for him is an enquiry into what is most valuable in one's life; a very personal experience of values woven around the individual subject. We analyse the true nature of ethical in Wittgenstein's writings and argue that it can only be understood through a close examination of the relation he proposes between self and the world. Our argument is rooted around his unique notion of solipsism without a solipsistic self. This distinctive ontological relationship between self and the world explicates moral significance into the world and how morality is defined as deeply felt personal responses to life.
