SOUZA, Paulo Rogério de e MELO, José Joaquim Pereira. Prometeu acorrentado: uma proposta esquiliana de formação para o homem clássico. Educação. UNISINOS [online]. 2011, vol.15, n.02, pp.105-114. ISSN 2177-6210.
The aim of this work is to present a discussion on how the educational process evolved in the Classic context, broadening historical-educational knowledge. Based on that, we also aim to promote an analysis on Education in contemporaneity. Initially, there is a discussion on Greek tragedy (conceived as a city art) which was used by City-state dominant sectors as a way to form and educate the Citizen-Man. Thus the role of the poet arises within this educational process, given his technical ability to create his art as well as the use he makes of art’s didactic aspect. Furthermore, we analyze the educational strength of Aeschylus, one of the poets of the Classic era, whose works served as a formative instrument. In this sense, special attention is given to the social conflict depicted in Prometheus Bound and the way the poet represented his characters to make Prometheus’ myth the background to highlight a new Man formation requiring a democratic society.
