Summary/Abstract: This article focuses on Blumenberg`s interpretation of Copernican Revolution in modernity. The study starts from the possibility in traditional systems to lead to such revolution, and on the other side it tries to corelate Copernicus thought with posterity within the modernity`s boundaries. Considering this, the study underlines and investigates also the concepts of change and motion, that will finally provide better tool for modernity to differentiate by former theories. The basic idea of this article resides in rejecting all causal interpretation of Copernican revolution - on the contrary, Blumenberg assumes that the new paradigm was possible through inherent determinations, according to Copernic's own ideas and to modernity as an epoch, as well.
