Controversies about the Nature of Czech philosophy on the Pages of Ruch Filosoficky

Publication at Central Library of Charles University |

Abstract

The chapter addresses the key topics consistently discussed in Ruch Filosoficky (1920), the second Czech-language philosophical journal founded in Czechoslovakia. The establishment of the journal stemmed from a generational conflict when a younger generation of philosophers articulated the need to transform the philosophical discourse, enriching it with new topics and approaches.

The chapter examines whether individuality was among the discussed topics and whether individualism, as a philosophical stream, played a role in the transformation of the Czech philosophical discourse within the journal.
