The aim of this work is to analyze the current situation of epistemology, and those critics, such as those presented by Rorty and Taylor, that indicate the necessity of overcoming. It is intended to show that the foundational project and ideas of exact representation, elementary experience and incorrigibility, which from modernity conditioned epistemology, are untenable. However, a new form of philosophical reflection that considers the plot knowledge / language / action, can be thought. This new perspective implicates to attend to (...) the multiples games of language in which knowledge can be taken configurating the epistemological field from other interrogations. (shrink)

The work deals with the problem of realism, as one of the focuses in which semantic, ontological and epistemic issues merge together. The analysis starts from Putnam's internal realism, pointing out its difficulties and the movement towards pragmatic or natural realism. This movement implies the reviewing of the epistemic notion of truth and of the instances of justification, and consequently, of the relations established between perceptive activity and linguistic practices.El trabajo se aboca al problema del realismo, como uno de los (...) focos en los que convergen cuestiones semánticas, ontológicas y epistémicas.
