10. Summary of thesis results:
- Explaining the change in the concept of human beings in the novels of the early period of renovation such as The Sorrow of War, Begging the Past, and Flying Swallows originated from the need for innovation in literature and art after the war. This change in the concept of human beings is clearly shown through the change in the depiction of a typical literary image: the image of the soldier.
- The image of the soldier is a unity of negative and positive aesthetic nuances: noble and base, brave and cowardly, generous and selfish, animalistic and rational, etc. It is the contradiction between these aesthetic nuances that highlights the simple, familiar beauty that always exists in the image of the soldier.
- The art of portraying the soldier character in the reformed literature has clear innovations compared to the literature before the reform, expressed in the art of character building; artistic space and time; plot and structure; language and tone.
- Affirming the change in human concept in literature in the early period of renovation shows the continuity of traditions of previous stages and is the foundation for bold innovations in literature from the mid-90s to the present.

10. Summary of the findings of the thesis:
Explaining the change in the conception of “man” insomespecified novels during the beginning of Innovation period such as “The Sorrow of the War”, “living off the past”, “Flying Swallow” stems from the demand of literary innovation – the Postwar art. It is likely that this change is clearly expressed throughout the portrayal of a typical image in literature - the image of Soldier.
The image of Soldier is a unified combination between both positive and negative aesthetic nuances: lofty and lowly, courage and cowardice, generosity and selfishness, bestiality and reason…Moreover, it is exactly the conflict between those aesthetic nuances that remarkably highlights the idyllic and intimate beauty that still exists in the image of Soldier.
The portrayal of Soldier image in Vietnamese literature has numerous changes in comparison between before and after the Innovation, which is illustrated in the art of character building, the space and the time of art, plot and structure, language and literary tone expressed.
Affirming the change in the conception of “man” in Vietnamese literature during the beginning of Innovation period has shown traditional continuations from the previous generations and has been the basis for various strong innovations in literature from the mid-90s until now.
