Keywords: Spengler; Blaga; philosophy of culture; cultural framework;

Summary/Abstract: This study aims, in a close interpretation of the original texts, to reconstruct Oswald Spengler's and Lucian Blaga's concepts of philosophy of culture followed by a brief analysis of the usefulness of the proposed ideas for understanding and comparing cultures. Some of the ideas of the two philosophers will be compared and the pre-existing aprioric forms that play a determining role in cultural creation will be analyzed. Although the arguments for the elements of such cultural frameworks are contingent used with some methodological caution they can create an ingenious framework for understanding and describing the specificity of cultures.
