Actor of collective representations in the comparative history of philosophy

The article discusses the problem of the actor of collective representations in the comparative history of philosophy. It is proposed to emphasize the status of a researcher in comparative methodology and, thus, move from a dialogue of cultures (within the framework of the philosophy of culture) to an interdisciplinary dialogue (within the framework of the history of philosophy and historiography). Along with that historian of philosophy is considered as an actor of collective representations, transforming meanings and concepts based on the attitudes of national culture.
