Abstract
Positivist thought found some echoes within the Armenian circles of Constantinople and Smyrna as of the second half of 19th century.
Positivism promoted positivism against metaphysics and religion. Old norms were to be replaced by new perceptions. Gosdantian Armenian book, About Method, is nothing but a promotion of positivist thought. It was an attack against religion and metaphysics. Gosdantian believed that progress is possible only by of defending the scientific mind in an unyielding manner.
The book caused a wave of protests within the conservative circles and Gosdantian was strongly criticized. On the other hand the French positivist philosopher Litre, solidarized with him in his magazine.
As an ottoman citizen the legacy of Gosdantian constitute a part of the history of Ottoman philosophy. Indeed, alongside Demirdjibashian, GFosdnatian was onew of the very first positivist thinkers of the Ottoman Empire.
