Wittgenstein's later philosophy shares common ground with phenomenology and the philosophy of Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty (according at least to what I know of Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty). In his analyses of language and the foundations of meaning, Wittgenstein brings metaphysics, or what once pertained to metaphysics, out of the mind and/or soul, in to the world. Finch makes this clear enough. Unless I'm mistaken. Perhaps I don't get out enough.
