Truong Tuu and Sociological Method in the Humanities Social Sciences in Higher Education

EasyChair Preprint 7127

Abstract

Looking back on the past journey, it is necessary to study Truong Tuu from a more thorough and sharp perspective. In the early years of the twentieth century, Truong Tuu appeared as a pioneer in searching of new ideas, new principles for life and literature. His ideas have been absorbed from many tendencies such as Marxism, Freud’s psychoanalytic theories, … Our topic is a historical study of literature according to the literary sociological method. In this method, we will use the main approaches such as: statistics, synthesis, analysis, comparison and interdisciplinary research. Therefore, we always put a theoretical framework for literary research in the cultural context of the early twentieth century, from which we will compare and argue to point out the new and the traditional in Truong Tuu's method.

When approaching Truong Tuu's sociological method to teach humanities social sciences in Higher Education, our desire is to bring a more complete and  general view of Truong Tuu as a  researcher, critic, writer, and culturalist as well as introducing in more detail the new critical trend of Vietnamese literature in the 40s: literary socialisation criticism. This is also an interdisciplinary trend that can bring literature closer to other sciences such as culture and history that currently being applied by domestic and international science in the twenty-first century.
