Abstract
Razdoblje srednjega vijeka — kako ga nazvaše humanisti — obuhvaća epohu od gotovo tisuću godina. Ono je iznjedrilo sjajne mislioce koji su svojim sumama, objedinivši najbolje tekovine antičke spekulacije u logičko jedinstvo, utemeljili i razložili kršćanske istine. Taj je tzv. skolastički sustav zapao u zaborav, a iznova ga je, poglavito na postavkama Tome Akvinskoga, nastojao obnoviti papa Leon XIII. krajem 19. stoljeća. Na taj će se način u 20. stoljeću širom Europe iznova probuditi interes za srednjovjekovnu filozofiju. Srednjovjekovna filozofija u Hrvatskoj nikada neće zauzimati ono mjesto koje zauzima u Europi i svijetu, gdje za nju čak postoje sveučilišne katedre i instituti. Ona se ipak u Hrvatskoj njegovala i
njeguje na katoličkim učilištima i njihovoj periodici. U ovom se članku želi istražiti prisutnost srednjovjekovne misli i njezinih autora u hrvatskim časopisima osnovanim u 20. stoljeću, a to su Bogoslovska smotra, Život — Obnovljeni život, Nova revija, Jukić, Crkva u svijetu i Disputatio philosophica.The Middle Ages – thus labelled by the humanists –- encompass an epoch of almost a thousand years. This period has produced brilliant thinkers who through their summae consolidated the best achievements of antique speculation into a logical unity and thus laid the foundations of and expounded Christian truths. This so-called
scholastic system had fallen into oblivion until the end of the 19th century, when Pope Leo XIII endeavoured to renew it again based notably on the tenets of Thomas Aquinas. Thus in the 20th century an interest in medieval philosophy quickened throughout Europe. This philosophy will never occupy the same place in Croatia as it occupies in Europe and the world, where there exist university departments and institutes of medieval philosophy. Yet it was cultivated in Croatia and is still cultivated at Catholic colleges and in their periodical literature. The aim of this article is to research the presence of medieval thought and its authors in Croatian journals established
in the 20th century, and these are Bogoslovska smotra [Theological Review], Život – Obnovljeni život [Life – Renewed Life], Nova revija [The New Survey], Crkva u svijetu [The Church in the World] and Disputatio philosophica
