Opis

This book investigates a philosophy of higher§education, which, on a §modern, international scale, occupies but a tiny§microcosm of the §world's institutions of tertiary learning. §Nevertheless, liberal arts §colleges uphold traditional values of education;§therefore, remain as §one of the last survivors of classical teaching and§learning. §§Upon closer investigation, the educational values of§the ancient §world experienced a rebirth in the modern university.§ First seen in §Humboldt's Germany, British institutions such as§Oxford and §Cambridge adapted the German model for English§personalities. §Upon colonization of the New World, both German and§English §influences crossed the Atlantic to permeate the§United States. §Eventually, the models of Oxford and Cambridge took§hold of §America and spawned a new breed of higher education. §§This book delves into "Havenhurst College," a§pseudonym, to §examine a real liberal arts institution. For the§sake of knowledge §and the cultivation of the individual, one must hope§that this last §remnant of classical teaching and learning will§survive.
