AbstractThe correspondence between Ludwig Wittgenstein and Moritz Schlick presented in this publication is part of the complete correspondence of Schlick which is intended for publication in the context of the Moritz Schlick Gesamtausgabe (Collected Papers of Moritz Schlick).

Only this context enables a broader understanding of the topics and facts addressed in the letters, some of which have be re-dated.
