The article attempts to reconstruct the approach of practicing the philosophy of nature by Franciszek Gabryl (1866-1914). The Cracow philosopher undertook the problem of the method of natural philosophy, and his metaphilosophical proposals – though embedded in the context of neothomism tradition – can be perceived as an attempt to modernize classical christian philosophy. The article attempted to determine what was his approach to the issue of the method of nature philosophy (i.a. the problem concerning the relationship between philosophy of nature and natural sciences).
