The Thought of Event and The Practice of Language—A Comparative Study of Heidegger’s and Wittgenstein’s Thoughts

Martin Heidegger and Ludwig Wittgenstein are two of the most important philosophers of twentieth-century philosophy, and their ideas became the founders of two major philosophical traditions (Continental Philosophy and Anglo-Saxon Philosophy). Their ideas were formed on the basis of a common problematic consciousness, i.e. a critique of the philosophy of subjectivity. So on this basis, it is possible to seek the intrinsic relationship between the two views, from which we can get a glimpse of the two philosophers’ different answers to the common problem and seek the possibility of mutual dialog.
