About Branislav Petronijevi
- Branislav "Brana" Petronijevic (sometimes styled as Petronievics) (Serbian Cyrillic: ????????? "?????" ????????????; 6 April 1875 – 4 March 1954) was a Serbian philosopher and paleontologist.
- His major work is the two-volume Prinzipien der Metaphysik (Principles of Metaphysics, Heidelberg, 1904–1911), in which he outlines his original metaphysical system – a synthesis of Baruch Spinoza's monism and Gottfried Leibniz's monadological pluralism into what he called "monopluralism".
- Influenced by George Berkeley and G.W.F.
- Hegel, Petronijevic held that our immediate experience is the source of basic logical and metaphysical axioms – what he called "empirio-rationalist" epistemology.In the field of palaeontology, Petronijevic was the first to distinguish between the genera Archaeopteryx and Archaeornis.
- However, most of his taxonomic interpretations were later abandoned.
- He also discovered new characteristics of the genera Tritylodon and Moeritherium.
