The Gymnasium of Virtue

Education and Culture in Ancient Sparta

Ocena książki

Więcej o książce

Focusing on ancient Sparta's educational system, this book challenges the view that it was merely a conservative blend of primitive customs. The author, Nigel Kennell, contends that the perception of Spartan education as unique was shaped by later political and cultural influences, rather than reflecting its true nature. Covering a broad historical period from the sixth century B.C. to the fourth century A.D., it provides a nuanced understanding of Sparta's educational practices and their significance in the context of Greek society.
