Abstract
Since the Tractarian ontology was only a formal presentation of our language and thinking (of everything intelligible), not metaphysics, its claims that the propositions are constructed (4.5), and that “a proposition constructs a world” (4.023) indicate the legitimacy of its reconstruction we are going to make in the present chapter. It discusses Wittgenstein’s constructivist ontology of ways. Wittgenstein’s ways are different both from modi and from tropes. In short, his ontology of ways explores the manners in which the elements of one basic ontological system can arranged to produce ontological systems of higher order. The advantage of this ontology is that it suggests an elegant solution to the problem of constructing ontological systems of new order, such as states of affairs, thinking, language, logic and works of art.
