Summary/Abstract: The relation of similarity plays a central role in carnap’s Konstitutionstheorie. We intend in the following paper to take a closer look at this matter. There is a difference to be mentioned between the proper analysis and the quasianalysis, and the levels they are functional at. We emphasize the different behaviour of similarity circles used in the two methods and reach the issue of the stipulated similarity intervals. En fin, it is the problem of colour solid tridimensionality that we consider, and our systematic distinction between nuances and subnuances.
