Gespräche, Vorträge, Séancen: Kurt Gödels Wiener Protokolle 1937/38: Transkriptionen und Kommentare: Veröffentlichungen des Instituts Wiener Kreis, cartea 31

Autor Tim Lethen
de Limba Germană Hardback – 26 mai 2021
This book provides detailed transcriptions of two notebooks written by Kurt Gödel in Vienna in 1937/38 in the nearly forgotten Gabelsberger shorthand system. The first of these notebooks, simply entitled as the Protokoll-book, contains notes on conversations Gödel had with people like Rudolf Carnap, Rose Rand, Friedrich Waismann, Else Frenkel-Brunswik, and many others who were—at least to some degree—connected to the Vienna Circle. It also covers detailed descriptions of the regular meetings organized by Edgar Zilsel. The second notebook includes notes on a series of lectures given at the Vienna Psychological Institute, which was led by Karl Bühler at the time. Both notebooks are part of Gödel’s huge Nachlass kept at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, which consists of literally thousands of stenographic pages covering logic and the foundations of mathematics, philosophy, physics, and theology. The now transcribed and commented notes reveal a very personal side of Gödel which has—to a large extent—been unknown to a mainly scientific-oriented audience. The book is of interest to people wanting to learn about Gödel’s personal background in Vienna in the late 1930s as well as his keen interest in philosophy, psychology, and parapsychology.

Notă biografică

Tim Lethen teaches mathematics and computer science at a German Gymnasium and lectures didactics of computer science at the Universität des Saarlands in Saarbrücken, Germany. As part of the Godeliana-Project, led by Jan von Plato at the University of Helsinki, Finland, Tim has read and transcribed many of Gödel’s private and scientific Gabelsberger shorthand notes, including notes on logic and the foundations of mathematics, quantum mechanics, and philosophy. Tim’s interest in Gödel’s ontological proof for the existence of God, a hitherto undiscovered version of which he published in 2019, led him to the investigation of Gödel’s theological and biblical studies, which—until very recently—have been lying untouched in Gödel’s Nachlass in Princeton.
