Abstract
The aim of the thesis is to defend the hypothesis that an anti-
Aristotelian interpretation of the genesis of the process of knowing
provides an interesting and fruitful means to understand the human never-ending search for knowledge and to answer doubts concerning the reliability
of human knowledge of external reality. Such statement requires an
explanation.
