Summary/Abstract: The article concerns the variants of processuality of textual ‘I’ in view of its philosophical foundations. Processuality of a subject, defined as its dynamism and remaining at the level of what ‘event’ and not what ‘done’, the author considers to be one of the most important categories in which contemporary researchers see the textual ‘I’. However, there isn’t one coherent definition of processuality; it depends on the way of approaching to the problem. Academics analyze the issue in two main perspectives: the metaphysical and anti-metaphysical. Within the first one, the most important variants of processuality are: traditional processuality (quasi-processuality), personalistic (tran¬scendental) processuality and ‘organic’ processuality (process philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead and Charles Hartshorne). Within the other hand – processuality is defined based on genealogical praxis of ‘I’ and on research semiology (concepts of Julia Kristeva).
