(7)Why is education important?
Learning was highly respected by the Byzantine culture. The government supported the training of scholars and government officials. In byzantine schools the boys studied religion, medicine, law, arithmetic, grammar, and others subjects. Girls didn't attended schools but were taught at home. Byzantine writers gave an important gift to the world. They mostly wrote about religion stressing to obey god to save ones soul. Byzantine writers copied and passed on the writings of the ancient greeks and romans. Without the Byzantine copies many of the ancient world works would've disappeared forever.
