Thinking in the dimensions of the image

We propose to show how the three successive treatments of the problem of intentionality in Wittgenstein's work, from the Tractatus to De la certitude via the Recherches Philosophiques, crystallize in three distinct ways of establishing a parallel between the content of a thought and that of an image. More specifically, we shall try to show that the problem of intentionality is approached each time by Wittgenstein through that of the dimensions of intelligibility that give an image its legibility, as well as through that of the generality and reversibility to which the use of an image is susceptible.
