Abstract
In this paper we deal with the philosophical work of Fr. Krsto Kržanić. In the first chapter we give a brief account of his life and work in general, and in the second chapter we turn to his philosophical work. In this chapter we present in detail his four significant philosophical works, two in Italian: La scuola francescana e l’averroismo (Franciscan School and Averroism), Grandi lottatori contro l’averroismo (Great Fighters against Averroism) and two in Croatian: Glavne ideje Augustinove filozofije (The Main Ideas of Augustine’s Philosophy) and a book from 1934 entitled Baruh Benedikt Spinoza: život i filozofija (Baruch Benedict Spinoza: Life and Philosophy). Finally, in the concluding observations, we make several assessments of Kržanić’s philosophical writing, and in a special way we briefly evaluate his philosophical work in the context of the Franciscans of the Franciscan Province of the Most Holy Redeemer in the 20th century.
