Fra Vicko Kapitanović i istraživanje hrvatske filozofske baštine
Fr. Vicko Kapitanović and the Research of the Croatian Philosophical Heritage

Summary/Abstract: The Croatian philosophical heritage is an ongoing research task. There are not many who have dedicated themselves to this task. One of those who recognized the importance of the topic was Fr. Vicko Kapitanović, a Franciscan and historian. The importance of his research work in this area is expressed in the fact that he thoroughly researched, listed, described and brought to light numerous Latin philosophical manuscripts from the 18th and 19th centuries that are kept in the monasteries of the Franciscan Province of the Most Holy Redeemer in Makarska, Šibenik, Visovac, Živogošće, Split, Sinj, Omiš, Zaostrog, Sumartin and Karin. In addition, in presenting individual philosophical manuscripts, Kapitanović regularly describes the history of the monastic philosophical schools in question, stating in detail, as far as possible, the data on the Franciscan philosophers who taught at these colleges. This paper presents Kapitanović’s valuable contribution to the research of the history of Croatian philosophy.
