On the Role and Importance of the History of Philosophy
Goran Gretić
Sažetak
Bazala was undoubtedly one of the most versatile Croatian intellectuals in the first half of this century. His contribution as Professor in Philosophy at the University of Zagreb and as a high-level popularizer of the humanities (who saw it as his duty to improve the level of public education in the country) was crucial1y important for the intellectual life of Croatia at that time. His Povijest filozofije (A History of Philosophy) was a very sound and reliable introduction to the study of philosophy, which set very high standards for later work in the history of philosophy in this country. This book and his forty years of philosophy teaching helped to develop a philosophical atmosphere and philosophical thinking which, in a relatively short span of time between Franjo Marković and himself, brought Croatian philosophy to the level of contemporary European philosophy.
The interest in history of philosophy studies at the University of Zagreb is still quite strong, thus reflecting and continuing the tradition started by Bazala with his book Povijest filozofije and his teaching and research.
