- The knowledge in context achieves in the modern theory of knowledge just from the authors who critised the Enlightment (as an answer to the Great French revolution 1789). The particular interests of social groups are found in the foot of so-called pure cognitive interest of contemplating abstract person. A philosophical complement of this trend are Wittgenstein's Locical investigations and the post-modern thoughts following them; on a social theory level we can see as such complement the sociology of knowledge. It seems that this development gets us into trap of its kind. The followers of a paradigm of communication are right when reproaching the cheeky demand for grasping the essence to the paradigm of consciousness; but the enemies of metaphysics sometimes make an impression that real existing are just only the language-games - and nothing else. But even if we describe a man as an animal always included into social relations and prisoned in ones language, this surely would not be the same as temporal embodiment of language-game. Is not the amazing accuracy of our knowledge about language and society also a type of blindness? What type of Thing itself offers the paradigm of communication? How much is the reality constructed really social? And what are the presuppositions for this? The lecture will be devoted to survey of these questions and other connected problems.
