Summary/Abstract: Our approach attempts to be a necessary clarification regarding D. Cantemir’ s connection with the European scientific life based on novel research, little known, which we submit to analysis in order to put an end to any speculation which could arise, out of ignorance or ill will, even after the celebration of 300 years from Dimitrie Cantemir's election as a member of the Academy of Berlin. We intend to tackle a few aspects envisaging the relationship between Cantemir and Leibniz in terms of the universalism and encyclopaedism of their thinking and, especially, Cantemir's relations with the Academy of Berlin.
