THE MORAL MAN IN DIMITRIE CANTEMIR’S VISION. PART I

Summary/Abstract: What we intend to illustrate is what kind of human prototype Dimitrie Cantemir builds in his work, having as cultural model the Greek philosopher Plato. From this perspective, consistent advocacy for knowledge, for truth, is the foundation of the whole “moral edifice" which is especially dedicated by Cantemir in the Sentences (Sententii). Cantemir's work is an invitation to self-knowledge, thereby contributing to the education of the Romanian human nature.
