Summary/Abstract: Our paper attempts to outline a comparative analysis in order to highlight the specific patterns of scientific knowledge and metaphysical knowledge, as we may find them in Blaga’s philosophy as a whole. For this, our approach has to face at least two major challenges, that is to bring to light some authentic (and intentional) epistemological meanings from under the veils of an often intensely metaphorical language, and to interdependently investigate these two types of knowledge in order to emphasize both their solidarity of meanings (if there is the case) and their particular meanings. Blaga’s highly original approach in the realm of epistemology shows its originality mostly through its very solidarity with the meanings of his comprehensive underlying metaphysical construction and particularly with what we believe to be its core idea: the idea of the ontological mutation, i.e., the specifically human way of being in the world (in the horizon of mystery and its disclosure) as a creative interpretive being.
