Dissensions and Achievements of Gučetić's Political Philosophy

Marinko Šišak

Sažetak

Nikola Vitov Gučetić (1549-1610), a polyhistor from Dubrovnik, dedicated a great deal of his published works to the problems concerning politics, state organization and instructions for proper government. His work was influenced by Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas and contemporary political writers, mainly Francesco Patrizi of Siena. Gučetić retells, expounds and adds to Aristotie's »Politics«, thus intending to reendorse the Classical polis, as well as Thomas Aquinas' interpretations of the Greek philosopher, i. e. the scholastic ones, opposing reformism at the same time. Gučetić's efforts to systematize these dissimilar motifs and intentions often end in contradictory attitudes and eclecticism. Gučetić's significance in the national history of political philosophy is in his views concerning economy, as well as in his realism and pragmatism in the speculation of the political phenomenon.
