Talk
Description:
Thomas More reflected deeply about how to educate his children. He set a new standard of education, a standard that included training in the full range of learning – scientific and humanistic – but a training that “put virtue in the first place, learning in the second.” He was also inventive in finding the best ways to educate each of his children. This talk will present More’s principles of education illustrated by some of his wittiest and most memorable examples.
