Epistemology as the theory of assigning a meaning

Modern philosophy, which is not a tradition of bringing the wisdom now, but an orderly systematic discourse, which is incarnated thanks to a special literary art, can be considered as a specific communicative environment. In this perspective every philosophical text appears before us as a material embodiment of a special philosophical language, which is the updating of some «the second order» logic. This logic works every time through the system for cause-and-effect relations in the sphere of improving the conditions of the possibility of any kind «linear» reflection. In our opinion, an area in which the language is actually itself is an epistemology. The content of the events of the formation of philosophical language is a double «abduction» of natural language. As the first «abduction» is the introduction of a ban on the use of nearby natural meanings of the words. The second «abduction» is detection for «reverse» the meanings of the incident sense, which appears out of their direct logic. In fact, philosophical sense is the body of the events of the second «abduction» of natural language, which marks a «theft» of any meanings at all after the «theft» of the closest meanings. The place of this kind of «abduction» is a philosophical text. In line with all of the above, there is a possibility to consider epistemology (the epistemological method of «abduction» of natural language through the philosophy) as a general theory of assigning a meaning, as far as it being is the correlation of the intellectual order in its structural and architectonic integrity with the procedure of the world. In the framework of the Western epistemology, we distinguished three historical varieties of the theory of assigning a meaning: the metaphysics of meaning, the phenomenology of meaning and psychoanalysis of meaning.
