Summary/Abstract: The article compares the concepts of play and truth in the philosophy of Hans-Georg Gadamer with the concepts of reference and metaphor in the philosophy of PaulRicoeur. The author begins by focusing on Gadamer, who presents the existence of art-work as a game.

After describing Gadamer’sconcepts, the author moves on to the analysis of selected themes from Ricoeur’s herme-neutical theory. The starting point is the issue of different types of reference in texts. Inconnection with poetic reference, the author describes the characteristic feature of poetictexts - metaphor.
