Abstract
In this article the author reflects on the philosophical-theological understanding of truth of Herzegovinian Friar Vladimir Kruno Pandžić (1912 – 1965), which he elaborates on in his article titled »U duhu potpunosti« (In the Spirit of Completeness) (Mostar, 1935) that deals with Heidegger's early work »What Is Metaphysics?« (1931). The current article shows that Pandžić understands philosophy primarily as »philosophy of being« in its »availability«, which puts him within the frame of what Heidegger considers to be the »destined« determination of the whole Western metaphysics: within the frame of the »issue of being as being«. On the basis of the aforementioned work of Heidegger, the author shows that Pandžić does not pay attention to the issue of being and its meaning, but exclusively to the issue of »spirit of completeness« in which he reflects on »being as such« – to that »spirit of completeness« that was, according to Pandžić, »introduced« by Christianity.
