Milan Komar in Evgen Vasiljevič Spektorski – sopotnika preskoka iz prava v filozofijo

Abstract

The article deals with the historical and philosophical connection between the emeritus professor of the Catholic University of Buenos Aires and honorary senator of the University of Ljubljana dr. Milan Komar (1921–2006) and professor at several law faculties (in Warsaw, Kiev, Belgrade, Prague and Ljubljana) and rector of the University of Kiev dr. Evgeny V. Spektorsky (1875–1951). The main finding of the article is the assertion that Evgeny Spektorsky was Komar’s teacher and mentor during Komar’s studies at the Faculty of Law of the University of Ljubljana and wanted him to be his successor on the faculty chair. The personal connection between Komar and Spektorsky became a friendly connection after Komar finished his doctoral studies. Comparing their philosophical views, we can notice not only a great affinity, but also a genetic connection.
