Abstract

SOME REMARKS ON JERZY KMITA’S CONCEPT OF SEMANTICS

This article presents the evolution of the concept of semantics by Jerzy Kmita. Three stages could be distinguished in his conception; the first stage is present in his two works, Szkice z teorii poznania naukowego and Z problemów epistemologii historycznej. His book Kultura i poznanie represents the second stage, and the third stage was developed in Jak słowa łączą się ze światem. “Krytyczne stadium neopragmatyzmu,” which is an article on the concept already present in Kultura i poznanie. I intend to compare Kmita’s views with elements of the philosophy of Jacques Derrida.
