School around a krater: educational aspects of Greek symposion

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to illustrate how Greek symposion in the Archaic and early Classical period developed the educational function. The author argues that young men could learn cultural habits and moral values important for the Greeks by observing behaviour of the participants of symposion and iconography of wine drinking vessels, by listening to sympotic poetry, as well as establishing homoerotic relations with adult men.
