The Liberal Arts Tradition: A Philosophy of Christian Classical Education introduces readers to a paradigm for understanding a classical education that transcends the familiar 3-stage pattern of grammar, logic, and rhetoric. Instead, this book describes the liberal arts as a central part of a larger and more robust paradigm of classical education that should consist of piety, gymnastic, music, liberal arts, philosophy, and theology. The Liberal Arts Tradition also recovers the means by which classical educators developed more than just intellectual virtue (by means of the 7 liberal arts) but holistically cultivated the mind, body, will, and affections. This is a must-read for educators who want to take a second big step toward recovering the tradition of classical education.
In 1947, British scholar, playwright, and novelist Dorothy Sayers stood in an Oxford hall and delivered a speech that would become a catalyst of the current classical education movement. The Lost Tools of Learning is a flagship address presenting the tools that were given to students in the Middle Ages via the trivium, the study of grammar, logic, and rhetoric. For perhaps the first time, these trivium subjects were applied by Sayers to student's developmental stages. She also advocated the integration of subjects and explained that training students to learn on their own is the chief goal of education. Read by native Briton Victoria Twigg and introduced by Dr. Christopher Perrin, this rendition will give you the feel of being in the hall hearing Ms. Sayers herself.
In his essay "The Seven Liberal Arts," Andrew Fleming West, former professor at Princeton College, traces the origin of the seven liberal arts, paying special attention to the thinkers who shaped their development: Augustine, Martianus Capella, Boethius, and more. This essay will give you a fundamental understanding of the seven liberal arts that have formed the foundation for classical education, both then and now. Originally published in 1912, this essay is now available as an exclusive audio MP3 recorded by Dr. Christopher Perrin.
