DIMITRIE CANTEMIR, IN THE TIME AND SPACE OF HIS AGE

Summary/Abstract: Cantemir was a philosopher of history, which differs greatly from the chroniclers of G. Ureche, M. Costin and I. Neculce, by addressing the historical phenomenon itself. Cantemir has not only replicated the huge factual material gathered by him regarding the history of Turkey, the Caucasus, Moldova and other countries, but has prefigured a way to interpret the general course of the historical process. Hence, the history and philosophy of history was the domain in which the thinker first manifested himself as a remarkable scientist. We will try to surprise how the world / space were commented and how it was told in Dimitrie Cantemir's literary, scientific and philosophical discourse, the building of the ontological discourse.
