Summary/Abstract: The work Studii şi însemnări blagiene/ Studies and notes on Blaga, of Professor Dumitru Isac, represents a series of texts that are in various stages of elaboration; some of them are definitive, partially resulted from processing certain versions, which are already published, and some are unreleased. Designed for publishing as a book since the very 1940s, this work remained entirely unreleased until this present time, and this is why we proposed it to the “Anuar”. Its significances are multiple and notable. On the one hand, it completed the horizon of the realistic-critical conception deployed from Kantian positions by D. Isac, in reference to L. Blaga’s metaphysics. On the other hand, this series of texts completes the already published works of the professor from Cluj, in numerous author volumes. Finally, we hereby acknowledge the continuity and the value of what some have named the “Cluj Philosophy School”, amongst whom illustrious representatives D. Isac is one. The reconstitution and editing of this work’s text, its preparation for printing, the corrections etc. were done by the scientific researcher Ionuţ Isac, author’s son. Next to author’s quotes from the editions that existed at that time, there were used the current editions for the test quotes, without indicating the reference. The missing fragments were indicated via square brackets. In certain places, there were inserted in footnotes explanations for a better understanding of the sections or of certain precise affirmations.
