Auguste Comte kritikája a Pécsi Minerva Társaság folyóiratában

Abstract

The Critique of Auguste Comte’s philosophy in the journal of Minerva Society This article is dealing with the critique of Auguste Comte’s philosophy in the journal of Minerva Társaság (Minerva Society) that was published in the University of Pécs from 1921 by scientists as famous as rector János Halasy-Nagy or Gyula Kornis, secretary of the minister Kuno Klebelsberg. Minerva Társaság was founded by academics that had to leave their former Hungarian universities in Pozsony and Kolozsvár due to the Trianon peace treaty after World War I. It is interesting to observe the raisons of this anti-positivistic critique as well as the founders’ aim with the publication of this journal in spite of the defeat of Auguste Comte’s philosophy that had taken place in West-Europe still in the 19th century.
