As we announced this autumn, Research Council of Lithuania had decided to fund a research project on the reception of ancient philosophy in Vilnius University in the 20th century. Doc. dr Jonas \u010ciurlionis<\/a> (Vilnius University) is the PI in this project, who leads the team consisting of dr Mindaugas Sto\u0161kus<\/a> (VU) and dr hab. Tomasz Mr\u00f3z (University of Zielona G\u00f3ra).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This post is to advertise the interview with M. Sto\u0161kus and J. \u010ciurlionis, who talked about the project, its premises and objectives. The interview in written form has been recently published on the VU Faculty website<\/a> in Lithuanian.<\/p>\n\n\n

Both, J. \u010ciurlionis and M. Sto\u0161kus, focusing on Lithuanian period in the history of VU (1940-now), emphasised the need of philosophers to confront their outlooks, methods, and the very understanding of what philosophy is with ancient philosophers. They both spoke about their lecturers and how they had referred to the Greeks. We cannot agree more with them regarding their views on significance of Greek philosophy for each Western philosopher, philosophical current and national philosophical tradition. Thus it is important to research and assess the impact of Greek ideas on more recent philosophers, for the history of philosophy is not a linear development, but a constant reference to the roots of philosophical thinking. And the core aim of the project is to research who of the VU philosophers in the 20th century, why and how referred to and reflected on ancient philosophers.<\/p>\n\n\n
