The paper deals with the problem of particularity of humanities, especially of social sciences. For that reason two types of humanities (humanities sensu largo) are distinguished: humanities sensu stricto (e.g. history) and social sciences (e.g. sociology or psychology). The application of concepts and methods of natural sciences to social sciences have been acclaimed by some philosophers and methodologists. This model neglects the particularity of social sciences. The author confronts this model with two other ones: Polish sociologist Stanislaw Ossowski's and Karl Popper's model of social sciences. As a result of the analysis the conclusion is reached: contemporary social sciences are irreducible to the concepts and methods of natural sciences.

The paper deals with problem of scientific status of geopolitics. Main stress is put to the geopolitical ideas in recent years, proposed on the both coasts of the Atlantic, with particular attention, however, put to this one that serves for justification of Euro-Asiatic project, founded in the philosophy of anthropocosmism. Reasons for that are: first, that version reveals radically biological motives present in initial form in classical ones; second, it is some worldview proposal, deliberately proposed for mass use; third, those who take part in this project are not only diplomats and representatives of the military (as usually), but also professional philosophers. The author would like to show the mechanism of that natural scientist deliver to ideologists theoretical evidence for legitimisation of the idea of inequality between people and nations, whereas academic philosophers from various parts of the world not only cease to criticize the extrapolating of biological theories onto social relationships but, contrary, legitimise this procedure. Main focus is put to revealing those assumptions that in the frame of anthropocosmism should justify revealing historiosophic generalizations from the natural sciences and, contrary, assuming natural processes in frame of social ones. The story is again that contemporary academic philosophy in large parts of the world loosed its capability for criticism of scientific results (criticism in the meaning of debate over value and borders of knowledge), which can be traced back to dissemination of meta-philosophical assumptions of positivism, irrespective of general refutation of its analytic form.

One of the frequently discussed features of sociology are its modest possibilities - compared with natural sciences and, even, psychology - of conducting experimental research. Hence the supposition that sociology encounters in the sphere of experiment certain obstacles which are either unknown to those sciences or not met by them in such in such a form and intensity. The aim of this paper is to depict those barriers to experimenting on individuals and social systems. Three main barriers - technical, social-psychological, and axiological are indentified and analyzed.

Janos Foldi (1755-1801), a doctor by profession, was a prominent member of a great generation of Hungarian writers, poets and grammarians in the age of Enlightenment, fighting for the use of Hungarian in science and education. His main goal was to establish the Hungarian terminology of natural sciences. Preparing for that task, he wrote the first comprehensive grammar of Hungarian in Hungarian, thereby also creating the Hungarian terminology of linguistics. The paper summarizes the results and deficiencies of Foldi's grammar (including a study on Hungarian versification). Foldi was also the first to publish a Hungarian zoology, and a book on the principles of compiling the Hungarian terminology of botany. His terminological proposals are also discussed and evaluated.

The attitudes of Prague naturalists from the second half of the 18th century to Schone Wissenschaften and Aesthetics have not yet been the subject of systematic research. One exception might be the clashes between supporters of the most important Bohemian naturalist Ignaz von Born (1742-1791) and supporters of the University Professor of Schone Wissenschaften Karl Heinrich Seibt (1735-1806), which occurred in the first half of the 1770s. This study investigates the views of Bohemian naturalists during the period starting with the introduction of natural sciences at Prague University in the 1750s until the end of the 18th century when these disciplines came to enjoy a high reputation. The approach adopted here is based on an analysis of the printed and archival materials with the aim of drawing attention to the as yet unknown circumstances, together with the novel approach to traditional topics, headed by the above mentioned dispute between Born and Seibt's supporters.

The author attempts to answer three questions: 1) What is metaphysics, with its intention to become the i rst among sciences, also among natural ones; 2) Is there any necessary relations/connection between metaphysics, natural science and theology (which partly means also relations between faith and reason); 3) In what way metaphysics can be used in natural sciences (also in theology) and how do these sciences benei t from it? In reply to the i rst is- sue, the author has stressed that metaphysics is an interpretation of persons, animals, plants and other things. A relationship between metaphysics and natural sciences, which is the problem discussed in the second part of the article, is necessary when a naturalist (and also a theologian) uses the results of his research to built a certain world view. Discussing the third question, the author shows that metaphysics, natural sciences and theology could cooper-ate in constructing an integral image of the world and man, form an adequate terminology to name particular problems, making people aware of the limits of research methods and teaching a principle of freedom in doing research in order to defend science from being ideology-oriented.

Moritz Schlick, the founder and leader of the Vienna Circle, occupies a position of importance in the history of modern philosophy. Our article is dedicated to memory of the thinker, who tragically died after a plot on him inside the Vienna University in June 1936. Schlick’s enduring contribution to the world philosophy is the fount of logical positivism. He was well prepared to give a new impetus to the philosophical questing of the future of philosophy. This paper offers a description of the foundations of Schlick’s philosophy.

ZUR ROLLE DER GEOLOGIE IM INTERDISKURSIVEN „CROSSING“ DER KULTUREN DER DEUTSCHSPRACHIGEN LITERATUR ZWISCHEN 1960 UND 1980: BOTHO STRAUß UND HANS LEBERT

Taking its starting point as the fact that in modern cultures, the trend towards scientific specialization is an interdisciplinary tendency, which is being examined in the literature, the study reconstructs the scope of knowledge of Botho Strauß and Hans Lebert in the period from 1960 to 1980. Knowledge in literature and the production of knowledge in works of fiction by these authors is temporarily and thematically associated with the breakup with “Geschichtsphilosophie” at the intersection of natural sciences and cultural history. This process is located in the late 1970s, which is the time of the main interest of Strauß in natural sciences. It is followed by the interpretation of the Strauß’s novel Rumor (1980), in which geology plays a major role, and Lebert’s novel Die Wolfshaut (1960). The article also presents the impact that interdisciplinarity had on the genres of “Anti-Deutschlandroman” (Strauß) or Antiheimatroman (Lebert).

The article deals with three manuscript sources for study of the natural sciences and magic in the royal court of Wenceslas II. At first it is focused on MS Num. 513 in the Public Library in Bern called the Lapidarius et Liber de physionomia Aristotelis. This treatise was written in honour of Wenceslas II. and would be inspired by the Secretum secretorum. The next MS from the Vatican Library (Pal. Lat. 1253) contains medical treatises, supplemented with marginal notes, which relates to the use of laxatives by personalities of the Wenceslas II’s royal court. The third MS (Pal. Lat. 1253) contains treatises relating to medicine, use of talismans and other astrologicalmagical texts as well as drafts and copies of still unknown charters and letters from the time span 1285–1288.
