Foreword
From a Post-Positive Analytic, with Love
The right method of philosophy would be to say nothing except what can be said—that is, the propositions of natural science—and, whereof one cannot speak… thereof one must be silent.
—L. Wittgenstein (ab. M. Hise)
Complexity serves, in the end, only to confuse and obfuscate—to create an exclusionary play-space for the pedagogue to flex and pump his ego. The hallmark of true mastery—of expertise in any art—is not, however, the ability to resist the propagation of knowledge, but instead a command of the understanding necessary to pare one’s theory down into a teachable science.
Every good logician or engineer knows that the simpler the system, the more robust it’ll be. In other words:
Speak plainly for better comprehension.
And so, in the spirit of Wittgenstein—of the simplicity and elegance of efficient design—the Modern Existentialist endeavors to bring Existentialist theory to everyone.
