Abstract

In this paper we are talking about the task of the history of philosophy according to the Croatian philosopher Albert Bazala, which is written about in his important work History of Philosophy. After first introductory remarks and a brief account of the life and work of Albert Bazala in the first chapter, we move on to the second chapter in which we schematically present Bazala’s work entitled History of Philosophy, Volume I, History of the Folk Philosophy of Greece. The third, and also the main chapter deals with the task of the history of philosophy, as Bazala sees it, and is divided into the following topics: the importance of the history of philosophy; the double task of the history of philosophy; socio-cultural factor; triple interpretation of philosophical systems; criticism of a particular system; the importance of the history of philosophy; philosophical problems, and finally, the division of the history of philosophy. In the conclusion of the paper, we systematically present and highlight the main points of Basala’s positive approach to the history of philosophy, and briefly outline his relation to the research of national Croatian philosophy.
