Abstract

Kazimierz Twardowski, the founder of the Lvov-Warsaw School, formulated the following postulates for research that met the criteria of good work in philosophy: syntactic postulates, namely clarity, lapidary and systematicity; semantic postulates, namely intelligibility (including clearness, distinctiveness and monosemity), precision and authenticity; pragmatic postulates, namely substantiveness, thoroughness and criticality. Syntactic postulates are directed against chaos, semantic postulates – against enigmatism, and pragmatic postulates – against symbolomania and pragmatophobia.

The author of the paper analyzes the content of these postulates and shows how they were implemented in practice by Twardowski and his students.
