Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to extract the pedagogical implications of the concept of values and the complementary notion of virtue as conceived by Dietrich von Hildebrand. The first part presents a wide panorama of Hildebrand’s ouevre. The second discusses his concept of value in the context of the tradition of Realist Phenomenology. The third identifies the realm of virtues as an inalienable area of the implementation of moral values. The fourth postulates the dependence of the concept of education on the anthropological and ethical assumptions. In this perspective, the Hildebrandian concepts of values and virtues place high demands on educators.
