초록

Hegel never published an independent article on the subject of liberal education (cultivation: Bildung) as it is taught at a university. However, he frequently mentioned liberal education from a very important point of view in his various writings. In particular, the key points he presented about liberal education in certain related articles, focusing on his Philosophy of Right, are as follows: First, liberal education (cultivation) in a home and in a society before a person enters a university proper, sets its sights on forming a self-reliant personality. The cultivation of an independent personality forms the basis of liberal education at a university. Second, individuals as citizens need theoretical and practical cultivation to satisfy their own interests and needs. In particular, the most important thing about liberal education as it appears at universities for civil society is to lay the foundation for creativity and originality through liberal education (cultivation). For this will allow graduates to become objective observers when confronted with various situations. Third, liberal education taught in universities should contribute to enabling individuals in the national community to be reborn as political subjects with political virtues. This can create a participatory civic awareness in which individuals come to realize that the work of the community is also their own.
