Abstract

The paper considers historical epistemology as a relevant direction of philosophical reflection on the historical foundations of scientific cognition. The researcher emphasizes the identity of historical epistemology in a number of other historical and philosophical studies of science, explores the matters of ontological turn in historical epistemology, reflexivity and relativism. The paper demonstrates that historical epistemology, making an ontological turn, offers an original way to solve the problem of relativism regarding science, which arises in the context of a historical approach to scientific foundations. The research considers the historical epistemology not only as a subject of philosophical research, but also as a special strategy for the study of science, which has its own methods. The possibilities and prospects of this strategy use, in particular, related to the constructive interdisciplinarity are also in the focus of this research.
