Summary/Abstract: Building a democratic society involves, among other things, the cultivation of moral values based on fairness, a sense of duty, honesty, national dignity, responsibility, mutual respect, and tolerance. The educational system is expected to instill moral values in pupils while teaching school disciplines. History has an important role in this process due to its implications for daily life. Moral values can be cultivated through the study of textbook contents as well as the reading of historical fiction. The article provides a model for the use of historical fiction in the cultivation of moral values in pupils.
