EnglishIn The Oxford Handbook of Wittgenstein, Michael Potter’s essay ‘Wittgenstein on mathematics’ offers not only an analysis on why Wittgenstein’s philosophy of mathematics is so controversial among philosophers and mathematicians but also justifies such controversy. For that purpose, Potter emphasizes that Wittgenstein’s discussions on math are unfinished. This article sheds light on some inconsistencies and contradictions pertaining Wittgenstein’s mathematic thoughts which, although reinforcing the decade-long criticism on the author, did not interest scholars as much as Wittgenstein’s comments on Kurt Godel’s incompleteness theorems and his dialogues with Alan Turing on the foundations of mathematics. portuguesNo ensaio “Wittgenstein on mathematics”, publicado no Oxford Handbook of Wittgenstein, Michael Potter procura nao apenas analisar por que a filosofia da matematica de Wittgenstein e tao controvertida entre filosofos e matematicos como justificar essa situacao. Com esse intuito, Potter enfatiza o carater inacabado das reflexoes de Wittgenstein sobre a matematica. Neste artigo, tem-se por objetivo explicitar algumas inconsistencias e contradicoes no pensamento matematico de Wittgenstein que ratificam as criticas que esse autor vem recebendo ha decadas, mas que nao tiveram a mesma atencao dos especialistas que os comentarios de Wittgenstein sobre os teoremas da incompletude de Kurt Godel e suas discussoes com Alan Turing sobre os fundamentos da matematica.
