Journal Title: Filozofia Nauki - Year 2017, Vol 25, Issue 2
Abstract
The aim of the paper is to reconstruct the procedure of analytic description, and to indicate the applications of these procedures in various disciplines. The point of departure is Tadeusz Czeżowski’s approach to the problem of analytic description. The paper consists of three parts. In the first part, some conceptual distinctions and some definitions of different kinds of description are presented. The second part focuses on interpretations of Czeżowski’s conception of analytic description. In the last part, some applications of analytic description in philosophy as well as in natural sciences and humanities are discussed.
