Abstract

The article discusses three ways of applying the method of abstraction in philosophical research. The first is related to classical philosophy and Aristotle’s method, the second to early modern philosophy referring to mathematics and natural sciences as a model, and the third one to broadly understood transcen-dental philosophy, using a specific type of insight into the structure of the subject.
