In the previous chapter we examined the non-phenomenalistic characteristic of Wittgenstein's phenomenology as influenced by the early phase of Moorean and Russellian realism. This was to make a clear distinction between "what is experienced' and "the experiencing of it', which opens the way for a subject to grasp reality directly. That was the position in which Wittgenstein took as a young student at Cambridge. But further examination reveals a deeper philosophical tie between Russell and the young Wittgenstein.
