Hellenistic Education
Hellenistic Education emerged after the conquests of Alexander the Great, around the 4th century BCE, and was characterized by a blend of Greek culture with local traditions. It emphasized a well-rounded education, including subjects like philosophy, mathematics, and the arts, aiming to develop both intellectual and moral virtues in students.
Schools during this period, such as those founded by the Stoics and Epicureans, focused on critical thinking and practical skills. Education was accessible to a broader segment of society, including women in some regions, reflecting the diverse cultural influences of the Hellenistic world.
