Abstract

Introduction. The relevance of the research topic is due to the appeal to the peculiarities of the ancient Roman philosophy of education as a socio-cultural phenomenon, which is aimed at identifying the most effective educational strategy in it and the availability of useful information for modern pedagogy. The model of the ancient Roman philosophy of education is traditionally associated with the ancient Greek one, developed by such giants of philosophical thought as Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, where the teacher is presented as a mentor teaching logical thinking skills to ancient Roman youths, sharing with them the accumulated knowledge that defines the teacher as a carrier of information. Methodology. The research is a historical and theoretical concept in the field of philosophy of education using comparative, hermeneutical and existential approaches. Discussion. In order to develop a scientific and theoretical approach in the context of increasing digitalization and informatization of Russian society, it becomes necessary to reflect on such points of view as the ability to extract philosophical and pedagogical conclusions from history, the logic of ongoing socio-political events and the experience of responding to the challenges of socio-political events. With this approach to solving the tasks of studying the ancient Roman educational system, it becomes possible to connect the tools of the philosophy of education (ontology, epistemology and axiology). Subjectivity to the study of the features of ancient Roman education aims to highlight those essential tools that are already available in modern philosophy to explain the historical socio-cultural situation. Conclusion. The results of the research can be used by modern pedagogy to reflect historicity in the formation of the philosophy of education.
