Abstract
The Lvov-Warsaw School of Philosophy, or LWSP for short, was a world-famous group of eminent Polish philosophers who made an outstanding contribution to twentieth century philosophy. One of its leading figures was Tadeusz Kotarbiński (1886–1981). This paper is intended as an overview of his contribution to the achievements of the school. Let us start from a brief description of the intellectual context of philosophical studies as seen by the school’s originator Kazimierz Twardowski and characterized by a pupil of his:

Jadczak’s article describes the letter that Kotarbiński sent earlier to Twardowski. This is what he wrote: “I would like to indicate my affiliation with the ‘Lvov School’ in a different way that depends on your consent, Professor. [...] I would like to kindly request your consent to my dedicating these first public writings to you” (R. Jadczak, “Kilka uwag o stosunku Kazimierza Twardowskiego do Tadeusza Kotarbińskiego” [Some Remarks about Kazimierz Twardowski’s Approach to Tadeusz Kotarbiński], in: W. Gasparski, A.

Kotarbiński wrote: “My doctoral dissertation concerned English utilitarianist systems. And though I had studied issues of logic, theories of cognition and methodology for a long time, the primary area of my interest was always human practice in social situations” (T.

The system of Bunge is an ordered triad of composition, structure and environment (context) considered at the atomic level proper for the systems of a given class (M. Bunge, Treatise on Basic Philosophy. Vol. 4: Ontology II: A World of Systems. Dordrecht: Reidel 1979).

In this, I share the view of Choroszy (J.F. Choroszy, Poglądy etyczne Tadeusza Kotarbińskiego [Tadeusz Kotarbiński’s Ethical Views]. Wrocław: Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego 1997, p.16), who pointed out when making reference to Kotarbiński’s article that Kotarbiński did not start from a ready-made doctrine as a project, but that Kotarbiński’s philosophy became a system as a result of his consistent philosophical reflection.

It is worth asking if this is the case in all languages, or only in Polish.

Practical errors, as opposed to the theoretical errors which are made when one produces a false statement, take place when one performs a defective action (active causation or causation through failure to act). “By practical errors we mean a free impulse applied contrary to the goal […], as a result of which, a given person causes a change that is contrary to the change which that person wanted to make” (T. Kotarbiński, “Prakseologia, Cz. II” [Praxiology. Part II] (2000), in: T. Kotarbiński, Dzieła wszystkie [Complete Works], Wrocław: Ossolineum, p.349).

One helpful guide to Kotarbiński’s philosophy is his confession “Jak zacząłem filozofować, jak filozofuję i jak innym radzę to czynić” [How I Began Philosophizing, How I Philosophize, and How I Advise That Others Do It] (T. Kotarbiński, Sprawność i błąd, pp.23–29).

I would like to repeat something I wrote earlier in a paper on Kotarbiński’s philosophy. A reistic analysis from the perspective of teaching practice goes like this: What do teachers do when they have to explain an apparent name, e.g. “similarity”? They show objects, i.e. things and, pointing to their corresponding elements or those resembling one another in some respect, they say that these objects (elements) are, for example, white (birch bark, snow, etc.) while others, for instance, are round (ball, globe, apple etc.). Thanks to this method, the apparent name is replaced with a chain of names of objects that yields a complex name denoting “white things,” “round things” etc. This teaching directive of reism takes its strength from psychological naturalness. Here, too, practicality comes to the fore.

It is remarkable that the city of Lvov was related to the origin of two human action theories: praxiology and praxeology, the former was suggested by Kotarbiński, the latter by an Austrian scholar, Ludwig von Mises, born in Lvov. Mises considered praxeology to be the aprioristic logic of action, therefore the foundation of economics (L. von Mises, Human Action: A Treatise on Economics. Third revised edition. Chicago: Contemporary Books Inc. 1966).
