  - Susan Stebbing wrote only once on Wittgenstein, in her paper ‘Logical Positivism
    and Analysis’ (1933). The paper was unusually critical of Wittgenstein. It put
    the Cambridge analytic philosophy of Moore and Russell in a sharp opposition to
    the positivist philosophy of the Vienna Circle, in which Stebbing included Wittgenstein.
    Whereas the positivists were interested in analysing language, the Cambridge realists
    were analysing facts. To be more explicit, the analytic philosophers were engaged
    in directional analysis, which seeks to illuminate (to elucidate) the multiplicity
    of the analysed facts. In contrast, positivists aimed at a final analysis that
    proves that there are simples. Stebbing’s sympathies were clearly on the side
    of the Cambridge realists. The important implication of Stebbing’s paper was that
    it urged Wittgenstein to change the style of his philosophy, abandoning those
    points which allegedly connected him with the Vienna Circle.@eng
