The Ancient History units present in Chilean manuals are characterized by expose an androcentric historical narrative that marginalizes the participation of women, since they have traditionally focused on describing the contributions made by elite men in Greco- Roman culture. To highlight this problem, this article analyzes the treatment that History, Geography and Social Science texts give to women of the Classical Antiquity. For this purpose, a critical analysis was made of the discourse of two school textbooks that were delivered by the Ministry of Education during the year 2020 to municipal and subsidized particular schools in Chile. The results show that the textual passages analyzed focus exclusively on the category of androcentric, since there is evidence of a high degree of invisibility of the role of women in classical culture, a clear dichotomy between the public male and private female roles, and a rooted adult-centric historical perspective. |
