El propósito de este artículo es argumentar a favor de la afirmación de los nuevos wittgensteinianos de que Frege y Wittgenstein comparten una actitud contextualista con respecto a la individuación del contenido y, como resultado, una concepción austera del sinsentido. Para ello, ofrezco interpretaciones alternativas de los pasajes del Tractatus en los que Wittgenstein parece comprometerse con la actitud opuesta al contextualismo: el composicionalismo.
