SUMMARY:Are the Great Books Good for us? Liberal Education and the Christian Tradition
DESCRIPTION:What are the liberal arts? Is there more than one tradition of humanistic liberal learning\, and what’s the connection between them the UChicago core curriculum? Professor Jared Ortiz (an undergrad alum of UChicago) hosted a lunchtime conversation about the tradition of liberal education\, its reception in Catholic thought\, and the question of what an education is for. \nPart I of the Winter 2020 Great Books and the Christian Tradition seminar series. \n— \nGreat Books and the Christian Tradition  \nFrom the School of Alexandria and the reading of Scripture in the Monasteries\, through the re-formulation of the Liberal Arts in the medieval schools and universities\, in the renewal of the tradition that included Petrarch\, Erasmus\, John Henry Newman\, and Ressourcement\, the development of the Liberal Arts Tradition has been intertwined with Christian thought. This series highlights the connection between the Liberal Arts and the Christian Intellectual Tradition and aims to recover the humanistic and contemplative spirit of a truly liberal education. \nOther seminars in the series include: \nII. Achievement and the Christian Life: What is Education For? \nIII. What is Wrong with Curiosity? Augustine on Curiosity and the Use and the Abuse of the Intellect in the Confessions \nIV: Is it Rational to Believe in Miracles? A Discussion of David Hume’s Argument Against Believing in Miracles
