"... und alles, was man weiss, nicht bloss rauschen und brausen gehört hat, lässt sich in drei Worten sagen"        

("... e tutto quello che sappiamo, e che non abbiamo soltanto udito sussurrare e bisbigliare, si può dire in tre parole")

Kürnberger

Here there is the tree-presentation of the 'core-Tractatus', i.e. the first 28 pages of the manuscript Ms104 (known as 'Prototractatus').

These 286 propositions are original, that is, they were not extracted (with the exception of 4.10013 at p. 18) from previous notebooks.

Wittgenstein composed them in 1915 as basis for his logical-philosophical system. * 

It is the bearing nucleus and the most revolutionary part of his construction.
