NGUYEN TRAI's THOUGHTS ON ETHICS, EDUCATION AND THEIR MEANINGS IN VIETNAM TODAY
Main Article Content
Abstract
Nguyen Trai (1380-1442) was a great thinker in Vietnam around the end of the 14th and beginning of the 15th centuries. His ideas in many disciplines arose from the reality of fighting Ming invaders to defend the land and establish the early Le dynasty. Among those principles, Nguyen Trai's perspective on ethics and education is one of the most distinctive, representing patriotism, love for the people, a lifetime struggle for national independence, and people's happiness. The article “Nguyen Trai's thoughts on ethics and education and their meaning in Vietnam today” focuses on the content and characteristics of that thought, drawing its meaning for the duties of training morality and fostering knowledge for Vietnamese people today in order to meet the requirements of the country's industrialization and modernization.
