Popis: In his Theory of Knowledge, in the chapter on “Empiricism”, Bagdasar presented extensively the consistent empiricist conception of John St. Mill and his arguments against innate knowledge. Moreover, in response to Mill’s criticism, Bagdasar himself outlined some major objections to radical empiricism. The purpose of this research is to provide a reconstruction of the both parts, the expository and the critical one, in order to identify argumentative structures that are specific to those philosophical options. As a result, Mill can be understood as the philosopher who took empiricism to its ultimate consequences. On the other hand, in Bagdasar’s critique we find topical issues organized into a systematic order, such as the influence of theory on observation, the relationship between sensory data and processing mechanisms, the hypothetical nature of scientific research, the nature of the relationship between experience and math.
