Summary/Abstract: The paper is an investigation on one of the key philosophical problems – value foundation problem – in axiological area of the Enlightenment philosophy. Dominant value foundation principle until 18. century was objectivist, that is to say thesis that the essence of value posseses objective reality had been primarily claimed. By this claim philosophers (from Plato to Lord Shaftesbury) confronted both gnoseological and axiological relativism and had tried to save the essence of value. In this text author analyzes the way that principle transformed into it’s contrast, into subjective reality principle and the way Enligtenment thinkers tried to save the essence of value, despite subjective value foundation, defending subjective reality as ontological value foundation, both from gnoseological and axiological relativism.
