The relationship between theoretical reflections on Russian idea and Russian character as the abstract concepts of domestic philosophy with specific reality of origin and existence of school of the traditional culture (TrC) is traced, through their detection in national views on education. Such TrC school has set the task to focus attention not only on national content, but also on national forms of information transfer.
