Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the philosophical analysis of ideas, which have influenced the development of the theories of education in the history of culture. The chosen strategy helps the researcher not only to structure in a certain way gained by the empirical and theoretical way knowledge in the sphere of education but also to use the obtained results to create a new theory. Due to received generalisations, the author systematised the diversity of the theories of education in histories of culture according to the two lines of development: Plato and Isocrates. The author concludes that the competition and complementarity that exist between the theories of education of Plato’s and Isocrates’ lines represent education as a matrix that forms a certain direction of self‐realization of human generations in the history of culture.
