Abstract:
Among the values announced in the 20th century, the need for education is comparable to the need for life, health. This fact is the remote echo of paideia. Being a supertemporal phenomenon, this ideal cannot exist without constant self-reflection. Paideia is also the subject of objective philosophical interpretation. There is an illusion that it is understandable. However, knowledge of the philosophical framework of paideia does not give us occasion to optimism. The study considers the traditional aspects of paideia in the modern interpretation of virtues in general to ideas of the conditions of the current establishment of a free person and citizen. Our analysis includes the historical aspect as well as seeks meanings supplementing the modern understanding of paideia.
