EnglishThe emphasis on the role of observation, one of the hallmarks of Empiricism, is reaffirmed by the primacy of the distinction between observable and unobservable in Bas van Fraassen’s Constructive Empiricism. In this paper it will be showed that, despite being one the main topics of discussion in contemporary philosophy of science, particularly thanks to van Fraassen, the question of observation and observability is actually so old as philosophy itself and has to do with the willingness, that defines empiricism, to keep ‘within the limits’. portuguesA enfase no papel da observacao, uma das caracteristicas salientes do empirismo, esta reafirmada no empirismo construtivo de Bas van Fraassen atraves da primazia atribuida por esse a distincao entre observavel e inobservavel. Neste artigo sera mostrado que, apesar de sua atualidade em filosofia da ciencia, particularmente gracas â enfase que van Fraassen lhe atribui, a questao da observacao e da observabilidade na verdade e tao antiga quanto a propria filosofia e remete ao desejo, definitorio do empirismo, de manter-se ‘dentro dos limites’.
