The Paratactic Aggregate- Feyerabend's Pluralistic Philosophy
 Brouček, Luděk ; Hogenová, Anna (advisor) ; Semrádová, Ilona (referee) ; Bschir, Karim (referee)
My dissertation project investigates Paul Feyerabend's later work, focusing on his epistemological and ontological positions. This thesis analyzes Feyerabend's later pluralistic philosophy and his view of historicity of knowledge from examples of the interpretation of the transition from archaic pre-rational epistemological framework to Greek and Western rationalism. The first part outlines Feyerabend's philosophical development along with his continuously changing philosophical views and offers an account of Feyerabend's critical reception among the philosophical community. The second part focuses on Feyerabend's interpretation of archaic Greek thought. Feyerabend presents a pre-rational epistemological framework in his concept of "paratactic aggregate." Feyerabend's idea is based on an analysis of late geometric figurative art and on development of Snell's linguistic research in the scope of Homeric psychology.

The Concept of Science According to Paul Karl Feyerabend
 Brouček, Luděk ; Hogenová, Anna (referee) ; Hajnal, László (advisor)

Based on a concrete situation, we elaborate on a random hypothesis which can solve. the problem, and because of that, we expand our knowledge. The approach to the choice of hypotheses or theories cannot be restricted by the scientific point of view, nor by scientific method or scientific demarcation. We are left to elaborate, and let alternative hypotheses compete with each other. Feyerabend provided evidence that this is free approach to the extetion of knowledge more effectively defends against rigid exclusivity, and indoctrination of ideology. Reality is more uncomprehensively rich and methodology binds. In this work a view of the world in which we are now living is presented. It is an approach to the world derived from history. It is about Relativism. This view is presented by the life work of the Austrian professor of philosophy Paul KarI Feyerabend.
