Summary/Abstract: Iosif Brucăr (1888-1960), born in Bukovina, was a philosopher and historian of philosophy, concerned with metaphysics, knowledge theory, philosophical historiography, logic and phenomenology. He dealt, especially, with Benedict Spinoza and his philosophy. In 1930, in order to mark 250 years from Spinoza's death, Iosif Brucăr published his most famous work, The Philosophy of Spinoza. His interest in Spinoza was the constant of his life. He worked so hard to finish another important volume about his favorite philosopher, but only the plan of this projected volume survived, as it was sent to a very good friend of Brucăr, professor Theodor Lavi Löwenstein, from Hebrew University of Jerusalem. This material refers to their correspondence and also to the plan of Ethica Repetita. The plan comes from the File RM 349 of The Central Archives for the History of the Jewish People in Jerusalem.
