Resumo

When I reopened the question of an Austrian philosophy in the mid-1960's, I could refer to the manifesto of the Vienna Circle from 1929 (Haller 1966; cf. 1968 and 1975). It was presumably Neurath who composed its first version, and while it was revised by Carnap with help from Feigl, Neurath and Waismann, in the end it did receive the name suggested by him: The Scientific World-Conception. The Vienna Circle. Without doubt then it is also the merit of Neurath, inventor of the 'Vienna Circle', of physicalism and the Encyclopedia of Unified Science, to have sketched the basic line of the development of Austrian philosophy. Indeed, it speaks for the design he worked out between 1929 and 1935 that my own attempts, and those which went in parallel or succeeded them, followed in the steps of Neurath's view of the pre-history of the Vienna Circle.
