Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book makes the case that classical learning, based on the study of Greek and Latin, should remain the foundation of a university education. The author argues that classics provide a superior basis for intellectual development than mathematics, and that the study of classical literature contributes more to the understanding of other disciplines, such as law and politics, than the study of other fields. The author also discusses the history of classical education in England and the challenges it faces today. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education or the value of classical learning in the modern world.
