Abstract
Our society requires an objective study of many philosophical, cultural, and educational problems that have had different interpretations throughout the rich history of the Tatar people. We should look at the topic of women's education (second half of 19th – beginning of 20th century) in the Tatar society through the movement of cultural and religious reform led at that time by Tatar enlighteners. The history of Tatar secondary education for girls in post-reform Russia represents us the history of confrontation between tsarist government and the Tatar society. It had different degrees of pressure and, accordingly, different outcomes during all that particular period. The authors observe both positive and negative trends in the activities of the tsarist government in opening Russian-Tatar schools, schools and colleges for Tatar girls. The women's movement for implementing the New Method in education (Jadid movement) had many positive features of the Tatar enlightenment.
Keywords:
Tatar education system, Jadidism, new-method schools, cultural and educational movement of Muslims of Russia
