Abstract

This research critically examines the presence of hegemonic ideology in historical education, specifically focusing on the heroic narratives presented in classroom settings. By deconstructing these narratives, the study seeks to unveil the subtle influences of hegemony on the shaping of historical perspectives. Utilizing a multidisciplinary approach, the research analyzes textbooks, curriculum structures, and pedagogical methods to identify and critique the ideological underpinnings embedded in the representation of heroes within historical contexts. The findings illuminate the potential consequences of perpetuating hegemonic narratives in education and propose alternative approaches to foster a more inclusive and nuanced understanding of history.
