Teodor VIDAM, in his five decades of academic activity, has participated to many conferences (even at the Romanian Academy), communications and lectures at various scientific and cultural events on the moral philosophy and he has published books, articles and essays in specialized journals such as Revista de filosofie. Another dimension of Teodor Vidam's writings highlights his poetic talent. He is not among those who make noise for nothing or for something valuable, but among those who, with great discretion, let their heart be heard in the chest of time and in the reader's senses. As a philosopher of morality, Teodor Vidam takes a stand against "pocket ethics", and as a poet he carries his words to pure hearts.
