The article analyses of the Andrzej Chmielecki’s system of integral ontology as a solution to the psychological problem – transformationism. From the standpoint of integral ontology Chmielecki confronts the fundamental problems of the theory of cognition, axiology, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, and anthropology. Chmielecki’s philosophical reflection is inspired by the concepts of Ch. Peirce, M. Scheler, and N. Hartmann. Chmielecki keeps a distance from some philosophical solutions popular in analytic philosophy; however, he takes full advantage of the accomplishments of modern mathematics. The presentation of Chmielecki’s most important ideas is the objective of the article.
The article is focused on the works of Eugeniusz Grodziński that concern performatives. The problem is if Austin’s theory of illocution is continuation of his theory of performatives or to a degree contradicts it. Grodziński took the second. He claimed that the first theory is logically independent from the second and that it is possible to distinguish utterances that are informative (reporting, descriptive) from these that are performatives.
