Summary/Abstract: The paper surveys the key moments and the most important philosophical positions defended by Russell on the issues of analysis during the years 1896 – 1911. The dramatic changes of his thinking and attitudes are illustrated with emblematic paradoxes and difficulties on his way from Absolute idealism through Platonic realism to Logical realism. Considerable emphasis is put on Russell’s celebrated On Denoting, 1905, as a classical example of employment of logical resources to the analysis of language to eliminate putative denoting phrases which denote nothing.
