Hải Triều

He was the pioneering theorist in the Vietnamese revolutionary press, especially through two major debates in the 1930s: Materialism or Idealism and Artistic Art or Art of Humanity. His writings strongly lavished idealism and romantic literature, far from reality, "the art of art", he also emphasized Literary realism and contributed to popularizing Marxism to the public. He was an excellent scholar, not only in literature but also in philosophical and economic and international politics.
