Reconsidering Wittgenstein's Philosophy of mathematics

The aim of the present work is to investigate whether Wittgenstein's Philosophy of Mathematics turns out to be of some interest for the contemporary research in this field. Chapter 1 exposes Wittgenstein's pivotal theses in the Philosophy of Mathematics and provides a brief summary of their possible relevance for the most global matters discussed by contemporary philosophers of Mathematics. The problems of mathematical knowledge, the ontological status of mathematical entities and the question about the Objectivity of Mathematics are analyzed in depth in the three following chapters.
