The transformation of epistemological ideas concerning the cognitive abilities of subject to cognize an object from the positions of constructivism and “model-dependent realism” is considered. According to them, any human representation of the reality originates a certain construct of a probabilistic model. The author presumes that the purpose of cognition is increasingly becoming not the objective reality description, but the organization of its subjective perception by a definite way. It means that the perfection of cognitive models or patterns through which subject “catches” the reality takes place. The role of metalinguistic discourse is substantiated from the position “the language and the world”, for every language sign has a hidden additional meaning. The author has concluded that addressing both the world and the subject at the same time is filled with the interpretative meaning. Its decryption is a complex process resulting in the construction of a cognitive model oftentimes capable to reveal its potential only in the course of a discursive practice.
