The influence of the national factor on philosophy is expressed in two models of the history of philosophy: the problem-oriented and the culturalist one. The culturalist variety of the history of philosophy includes not only the problems themselves, the ways in which they are solved and the reconstruction of the argumentation, but also the entire cultural context of a given philosophical oeuvre. Among factors influencing philosophy, the analysis also includes the national tradition in which the philosopher is situated. A culturalist history of philosophy requires a high degree of cultural competence and erudition. The researcher must be able to show the interrelationships of the various fields of human culture: philosophy, religion, science, literature, and visual arts. Writing a problem-based history of philosophy, on the other hand, requires the researcher to have developed analytical skills.
