The article deals with the philosophical achievement of Richard Rorty, a bright representative of the English-American tradition of analytic philosophy, in view of the communicative orientation of his key ideas. The author analyzes the attitude of the philosopher towards his contemporary philosophy, especially to the claim of the metaphilosophical theories comprehensive nature. It is shown that the progress of the mankind development can be ensured only in the presence of such an element as a private sphere, where individuals are given the opportunity to freely analyze, study their own aesthetic creations. The scientist developed the ideas of analytical neopragmatism, considering language as a specific human tool, as an instrument of effective human action in the surrounding world. In today’s changing world circumstances change with incredible speed, a person has to take into account this, which leads to the inevitable transformation of the language, the presence of multivariate discourses, and the provision of communication between them.References
