20. The Liberal Arts Tradition & Awakening Wonder - Some Books, Part 6
Show Notes

Difff and James discuss two books specifically about classical education. Difff describes The Liberal Arts Tradition: A Philosophy of Christian Classical Education by Ravi Jain and Kevin Clark as a 'one-stop-shop' for anyone interested in the classical education renewal who doesn't know where to begin. It is a great combination of classical and theoretical, and has a foreword by Peter Kreeft thrown in for good measure. James then discusses the importance of awe and wonder in the classroom in Steve Turley's Awakening Wonder: A Classical Guide to Truth, Goodness & Beauty.

Check out Difff's other podcast: Chiron, conversations about the past to help make sense of the present.

And James' other podcast: The Art of Inquiry, inquiries into the nature of the world and humanity with expert level guests passionate about their field.
