Abstract

IN CROATIAN: U radu se iznose biografski i bibliografski podaci o hrvatskoj filozofkinji i znanstvenici Gordani Bosanac. Također, analizirane su njezine glavne filozofske teme i motivi: utopija, utopizam, inauguralni paradoks, feminizam i antifeminizam. Akademska karijera Gordane Bosanac obilovala je brojnim istraživačkim temama, od kojih su neke bez svake sumnje bile predmetom njezina interesa, a neke, kako je sama isticala, rezultatom karijerne prisile. Ovo, kako ga je nazivala, "predmetno svaštarenje" smatrala je glavnom preprekom u bavljenju filozofijom mogućem jedino uz fokusirano, ničim ometano i dugotrajno izučavanje. Iako ju je život, dakle, skrenuo u sociološkom i komunikološkom smjeru, njezina su razmišljanja i pisanja nerijetko uključivala filozofsku komponentu. Literatura koju je čitala, ljudi kojima se okruživala, predavanja i tribine koje je pohađala uvijek su imali veze s filozofijom, zbog čega si je obećala doktorirati filozofiju. Nažalost, vremena, životne okolnosti, na kraju i zdravstvena ograničenja spriječili su je u tom pothvatu. Unatoč tomu, ona je oduvijek bila duhom filozofkinja te se svojoj velikoj ljubavi odužila pišući najvrjednija (filozofska) djela u razdoblju kada je karijera i životne okolnosti nisu odvlačile u drugim smjerovima – u mirovini. --------------- IN ENGLISH: This paper presents biographical and bibliographical details about the Croatian philosopher and scientist Gordana Bosanac. It also explores her key philosophical themes and motifs, including utopia, utopianism, the inaugural paradox, feminism, and antifeminism. Bosanac’s academic career spanned a wide range of research topics—some of which were driven by her genuine interests, while others, as she herself acknowledged, were the result of career pressures. She referred to this "subject-matter dabbling" as the primary obstacle to engaging deeply in philosophy, which she believed could only be pursued through focused, uninterrupted, and long-term study. Although her career ultimately led her toward sociology and communication, philosophy remained an ever-present influence in her thoughts and writings. The books she read, the people she associated with, and the lectures and forums she attended were always intertwined with philosophical ideas. This connection fueled her ambition to earn a doctorate in philosophy, a goal she was forced to abandon due to the constraints of time, life circumstances, and health. Nevertheless, at heart, Bosanac remained a philosopher. In her retirement, when life’s demands no longer diverted her, she returned to her philosophical roots and produced some of her most significant philosophical works, paying tribute to the discipline she loved so deeply.
