Summary/Abstract: The article intends to explain the negative impact the faculty psychology had on Maiorescu’s disciples by investigating a set of philosophical assumptions that underlie their thought. The Romanian debate on mind faculties comes to a turning point with Alexandru Surdu's logical approach that overcomes the difficulties of the essentialist metaphysics and offers an explanation for the occurence of disagreements within philosophy.
