Summary/Abstract: For a universal, metaphysically restless such as Dimitrie Cantemir’s, the explanation of the analyzed problem rests in the realm of ethics as a philosophizing register. From the perspective of moral philosophy, the reflection on conscience represents the basis for understanding the human reality. That is what might have made Dimitrie Cantemir write “Letter on Conscience”, because he himself had reached that moral superiority, characteristic to the whole, rational, free man.
