Leibniz and Cantemir via noica or what language do philosophers speak

Summary/Abstract: There are many ways of superimposing philosophical systems, with both distinct and mutual roots, and affinities. The history of philosophy is generous with such endeavors. However, I presently choose to take a different and perhaps harder approach. Since both Leibniz and Cantemir are masters of thought and language, I turn to a third spiritual authority, the Romanian philosopher Constantin Noica, in order to find out what kind of language do philosophers speak. Ontology and enunciation, history and spirituality – these are the ingredients of a great philosophy. The endeavors of Leibniz, Cantemir and Noica are different “faces” of the same man: the perennial philosopher! However, I am not concerned with Leibnizian and Cantemirian philosophies intrinsically, but rather with Noica’s interpretation of their spiritual legacy.
