Abstract
There is no doubt that education creates a man. On the other hand, man is an extremely complex structure. We usually arrive at two opposite but complementary conclusions. On the one hand, all the people we meet, and as far as we can guess, are generally in some way similar to each other. On the other hand, each person is somehow unique, different from others. Commonality and particularity/uniqueness are the two main cognitive categories of any phenomenon. It is understood that man, as a subject of activity, is “an open” system: his existence and development depend on relations with the world around him, in which he lives and works. So, firstly, man, like any living being, is part of the natural world and is rightly considered a biological organism. Secondly, any human being is a member of one or another society, with which he is connected by ties and relations, defined as a social individual. In addition, a person is, in one way or another, related to the socio-historical, cultural, and moral experience of mankind. How to adopt this experience? How to absorb? It is obvious that assimilation of this experience is necessary for a person's self-determination, growth, and development as a personality.
