Summary/Abstract: The book Philosophers in the City was created on the occasion of the centenary of the founding of the Philosophical Seminar of the Faculty of Arts of Masaryk University in Brno. It is dedicated to the reminder of the first nine philosophers, who gradually held the position of head of the philosophical seminary, the later department of philosophy. Their life, work and work at the head of the department are reminiscent of excerpts from their professional and popular texts, from materials stored in the Archives of Masaryk University. Selected texts provide insight into official and personal correspondence, diary entries, memories of their contemporaries and other documents related to their work and life. The texts and archives are connected and paralleled with general philosophical themes and European philosophers of the time as well as contemporary philosophers.
