Ludwig Wittgenstein held a contradictory, queer position in Bloomsbury. He was in several homerotically-charged close friendships with men, including John Maynard Keynes, yet he was awkward in the cosmopolitan company of Bloomsbury and derided at Cambridge by second-generation Bloomsberry Julian Bell. Nonetheless, Wittgenstein was concerned with themes that occupied the Bloomsbury Group, such as the difficult process of making sense and the importance of aspectival perception in meaning-making – a key component of Bloomsbury thought from Roger Fry’s cubism to Virginia Woolf’s experimental fiction. Moreover, concern for the difficulties of making sense connect both Wittgenstein and Bloomsbury to contemporary queer theory’s concern for problems of intelligibility, such as Judith Butler’s. Detloff and Pohlhaus explore these themes and their importance for our perception of what Bloomsbury means today.
