Dear Colleagues and prospective authors!

We are pleased to invite you to take part in the annual collection of articles on the history of ancient pedagogical culture. Each issue combines scientific articles, original texts, translations of foreign scientific works on the topic and reviews. This allows us to present the reader to a wide range of opinions belonging to representatives of various scientific schools and research areas, and to initiate an interdisciplinary field for scientific discussions on the history of ancient pedagogical culture. The conception of each issue is organised around the indicated theme and is obligatorily discussed with potential authors.

The theme of the ninth issue is “Ancient education as a worldview” (materials and proposals will be accepted until March 11, 2025). We invite authors who explore the following issues: ancient Greek paideia/Roman humanitas as the basis for ideas about the world and oneself in the world, the tradition of instruction as the basis of world order, etc. It is planned to hold the next scientific seminar on the topic of the issue, which will take place on November 11, 2025.

The theme of the tenth issue is “Education for a Hero” (materials and proposals will be accepted until March 11, 2026). We invite authors who explore the following issues: education and mythological history, training and raising heroes-child, educational paths of ancient heroes, “schools” for future heroes (Achilles, Hercules, etc.).

Publication process is free for all authors. Please note that the editorial team do not distribute hard copies to the authors and members of the editorial board, and do not distribute the journal by subscription, either.
