O tej e-knjigi
Piero Martinetti (1872–1943) represents one of the highest and, paradoxically, most isolated peaks of 20th-century Italian philosophical thought. A historian of philosophy and an original thinker, his figure is distinguished by an unwavering ethical integrity and a speculative depth that places him outside the dominant currents of his time, such as the neo-Hegelianism of Benedetto Croce and Giovanni Gentile.
