SUMMARY The names of colours in the Lithuanian dialects have not been investigated at all; therefore, the topic of the present work for Master of Arts “The Names of Colours in Dialects” is relevant and important.

We are living in a post metaphysical period and the proposal of a universal autonomy of religion does not have any support anymore. At the initial moment we work in the evolution of Habermas' thought till reaching to consider a philosophy of religion. In the second moment, we explore the possibility of philosophy of religion in Habermas. This leads one to consider the possibility of a semantic reserve of religion in a secular society. Thus, the Habermas' perspective of thinking takes into account the knowledge that is originated from religion when he opens space in the public realm for this discussion, being a epistemology of faith. This openness would make possible the philosophy of religion to think in a opaque core around the religion experience / Habermas considera a religião como uma importante reserva semântica na contemporaneidade. Por vivermos em um período pós-metafísico, a proposta de uma autonomia universal de uma religião não encontra mais suporte. No primeiro momento da dissertação, tratamos da evolução do pensamento de Habermas até chegar a uma Filosofia da Religião, algo que ocorreu lentamente. Em um segundo momento, apresentamos uma possibilidade de Filosofia da Religião em Habermas. Isso leva a postular uma possibilidade de reserva semântica contida na religião presente sociedade secular. Desse modo, a proposta de Habermas leva em conta o conhecimento proveniente da religião ao abrir espaço na esfera pública para o debate sobre a presença de reserva semântica na religião, sendo uma epistemologia da fé. Essa abertura possibilitaria à Filosofia da Religião pensar um núcleo opaco ao redor da experiência religiosa
