Debata nad wschodnimi korzeniami filozofii greckiej
Debate on the Eastern roots of Greek philosophy

Summary/Abstract: The paper shows two distinct methodological views, held by two nineteenth-century historians of philosophy: Eduard Zeller and Eduard Röth. Both of them participated in a debate concerning the origins of Greek philosophy. Their different views brought different research results, which in this paper are compared with each other, and with regard to the philosophy and life of Thales of Miletus. Zeller apparently won the debate, however certain works by modern historians of philosophy may give us some insights leading to reopening it.
