Abstract
In the course of history and its culmination in the present, we have learned several important lessons about the philosophical procedure. First of all, we have seen that the semantic system of language cannot determine what a given philosophical inquiry aims at, since any new insight or fresh flight of creative imagination would disrupt the semantic logic of the system in the effort to reach further areas. The system assumed at the start of an inquiry has inevitably to be transformed or replaced by another that emerges.
