Abstract

The object of the dissertation is to conclude that the philosophical and scientific thought have con-tributed to the generation of knowledge throughout history and is consolidated in the twentieth century and now the incidence in the XXI. Philosophy is a mental activity through which we build the har-monic labyrinth of ideas, many of them charged with experiences and some aimed at practice. For Wittgenstein, philosophy is not a science but an activity, why philosophize word connotes a dynamic sense, deconstruction, re thinking construction. To Radnitzky, the role of philosophy is to build systems synopsis of knowledge produced by science; so philosophy is a metascience. Why philosophical thought leads to reflection and leads to the genera-tion of knowledge in every period of history and has been fortified in recent centuries, especially in the twentieth century, which has been addressed: The Philosophy of Science which, from different looks, epistemology has gained significant ground since its arguments. Forever and today, the philosophy has been asked and tried to give rational answers to questions such as: What? Why? Who? Why? And the key question of philosophy is the Why? essential concern and that makes it vital to philosophy at least Greek philosophy dedicated to the pursuit of the “principle” of things both at the level of reality and at the level of knowledge. So, if you have not seen in some admiration philosophy, it is neces-sary to attack, destroy perhaps to finally fall into oblivion.
