За философията и история на философията
On Philosophy and the History of Philosophy

Summary/Abstract: The article consists of various notes and shared perspectives on the complex relation between philosophy and the history of philosophy. The author outlines a certain domain of understanding and he draws attention to some important moments of the debate concerning the importance of the history of philosophy to the philosophy itself. Apart from its purely theoretical meaning, the debate has also a practical aspect related to its impact over the philosophy education. Therefore, it is important to consider the specific situation in which it occurs and the ways philosophy and its history fit into it, as well as the philosophical and educational tasks that could be solved through it. The author focuses his exploration on the Bulgarian context without going further to a broader field of reference. He draws examples and understanding largely from his own experience and from the ways in which these questions have emerged and stood in the field of his personal pursuits in philosophy.
