Eğitim tüm gelişmiş ya da kurumsallaşmış toplumlarda olduğu gibi Antik Yunan Medeniyeti ve bu medeniyetin önemli bir temsilcisi olan Sparta Toplumu için de oldukça önemlidir. Kadınların Sparta toplumundaki varoluş gayeleri geleceğin anneleri olmak ve askeri bir karakter taşıyan Sparta Devleti için iyi birer vatandaş yetiştirmek olarak görülmüştür. Bu beklentiyi yerine getirmek için de her ne kadar erkeklerle eşit düzeyde olmasa da içinde farklı kategorilerin olduğu hem fiziksel hem de zihinsel bir eğitime tabi tutuldukları görülmektedir. Okuma-yazma bilen, müzikle ilgilenen, dans eden, beden eğitimi alan, binicilik, dokumacılık gibi yetenekleri olan, içinde güreşin de olduğu fiziksel rekabet gerektiren yarışmalarda boy gösteren “Sparta Kadını” bu özellikleri ile dikkat çekici bir konumda olmuştur.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Eğitim, Sparta Kadını, Okuma-Yazma, Müzik, Dans, Binicilik, Dokumacılık, Güreş.

Sparta Women's Education and Role in Social Life

Öz

As in all developed or institutionalised societies, education is very important for Ancient Greek Civilisation and Spartan Society, which is an important representative of this civilisation. The purpose of women's existence in Spartan society was seen as being the mothers of the future and raising good citizens for the Spartan State, which had a military character. In order to fulfil this expectation, it is seen that they were subjected to both physical and mental education, including different categories, although not at the same level as men. The "Spartan Woman", who knew how to read and write, was interested in music, received physical education, had skills such as horse riding and weaving, and participated in competitions requiring physical competition, including wrestling, was in a remarkable position with these characteristics.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Education, Spartan Woman, Literacy, Music, Dance, Horse Riding, Weaving, Wrestling.
