摘要：Stjepan Zimmermann was involved in two public polemics about his book Duševni život (Mental Life) published in 1932, which contains a general summary of empirical and philosophical psychology. One of the debates involved Zimmermann and Zdenko Vernić, who believes the book to be a simple propaganda of Neo-Thomist philosophy, and he also objects to the lack of Zimmermann’s originality in his research. Josip Lach has also brought up several objections in his review of the book, claiming that some of the theses are not clear enough. Lach’s general criticism concerns the lack of scholastic philosophy in the book. Zimmermann responds to Vernić by claiming that all the theses in the book are argued for in a strict scientific manner and therefore they are not an example of religious propaganda, despite the fact that some of them agree with the religious truths of Catholicism, while he responds to Lach with an argument that a book of that size and purpose simply does not allow a detailed analysis of the subject matter from a Neo-Scholastic perspective.
