Abstract

In the "logic of Essays", the Wigan Stearns that "the fact that we are making for their own image." Because the people have the ability to construct language, language can give meaning to the proposition one can construct the world. For the experience of the world, people can make sense of language make it clear, but what the world is; nature of the world, non-verbal can say. In our attempt to construct what the world is language, this world is my world, my personal world view, it is the question of what the world is a logical question, non-knowledge on the issue. In the Tractatus, Wittgenstein states that "we make to ourselves pictures of facts". Since we possesses the capacity of constructing languages, in which every sense can be expressed, we can construct the world by propositions. The essence of a proposition is its capacity to say something about matters in reality. But what the world is; the essence of the world, is beyond the limits of language. When one tries to express something about the world, it is always one's way of looking at reality. The world is my world, my weltanschauung. Thus, the question what the world is a logical question which has nothing to do with episemology
