Abstract

This article aims to reflect on the educational assumptions present in the work On Pedagogy, by Kant and The Destination of the Erudit, by Fichte. As for Kant, we will seek to demonstrate the importance that the thinker attaches to a solid education in childhood, which will be reflected in future adults. With regard to Fichte, the thinker, based on Kantian assumptions, reaffirms the importance of building a moral society, in which each individual has a vocation to be exercised freely and which will benefit everyone else. In both thinkers, one can see an emphasis on establishing moral education, with the aim of promoting good coexistence in society. The purpose of this education is to make instincts submit to the moral law, which, ultimately, serves to allow the individual to live in harmony with their peers.
