摘要：

The thesis defended in this article poses the subject of knowledge and culture, according to Paul Feyerabend, understood as a web of relations either between the subject and its culture, or between the subject and its scientific collectivity. This would not imply a cultural or collective determinism, since in Feyerabend's work individuals are presented as free and capable of changing their surrounding world, though not suggested as free from any collective compulsion. It is precisely his suggestion of an ambiguous culture, which individuals can use creatively in order to make decisions applying improvisation and a certain amount of freedom, what proves the linkage between the individual and its context.
