Summary/Abstract: The main aim of this paper is to present the most important aspects of the philosophical Romanian thinking in the 20th century regarding the role and the place of Romania, as a small and underdeveloped country – as some might think of it – in the European context. Ontological dimensions and images of the other in the Romanian philosophical discourse are reflected in many writings, especially the ones belonging to C. Noica, M. Eliade and E. Cioran, the most important representatives of Generation ‘27. Discovering the other involves living ontologically in one’s language, culture and experience.
