THE DIALECTICS OF INTUITIVE AND RATIONAL COGNITION IN THE PROCESS OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY
Keywords:
intuition, rational cognition, gnoseology, heuristics, eidetic image, conceptual knowledge, scientific discovery, dialectics.Abstract
This article provides a philosophical and methodological analysis of the dialectical relationship between intuitive and rational forms in scientific cognition. The author explores the role of intuition in scientific discoveries, its classifications (heuristic, eidetic, conceptual), and its manifestations through the experiences of prominent scientists such as Louis de Broglie, A. Einstein, N. Tesla, and H. Helmholtz. The study argues that intuition is not a logical contradiction but a supreme heuristic stage of cognitive activity.
