Yet his final words were \"Tell them I had a happy life.\" This poetic book examines the way Ludwig Wittgenstein has influenced artists of the word beyond his own field, thereby touching the subject of how philosophy can be relevant at large. By studying the ways Wittgenstein's theories have been bent, transformed, and expanded, David Rothenberg shows that responses to the reading of philosophy can take many deep, reflective, and different forms. Aphoristically constructed in the style of E. M. Cioran or Edmond Jabès, carefully illustrated with paintings and drawings by Doug Hall, Leif Haglund, and Debra Pughe, \u003ci\u003eThe Possibility of Reddish Green\u003c\/i\u003e situates Wittgenstein in the age of the sound bite and the artistic fragment, promoting the aesthetic of detachment and yet seeking to find a route through the sea of disconnected, jumbled ideas and changes that mark our time.\u003c\/p\u003eMusician and philosopher David Rothenberg is the author of \u003ci\u003eWhy Birds Sing\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eBug Music, Survival of the Beautiful\u003c\/i\u003e,\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eand many other books,\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003epublished in at least eleven languages.
