How should we teach the liberal arts?

In his latest article for the Beza Institute, Jake Thompson turns to Hugh of St. Victor to recover enduring wisdom for classical Christian educators on teaching the liberal arts. Be sure to give it a read!

"Hugh encourages teachers, when teaching students any art, to teach it clearly, briefly, and simply in order to affect easy understanding and prevent distraction. Hugh writes that when 'we treat of any art—and especially in teaching it, when everything must be reduced to outline and presented for easy understanding— we should be content to set forth the matter in hand as briefly and as clearly as possible, lest by excessively piling up extraneous considerations we distract the student more than we instruct him.'"

James Jordan and Biblical Language

"Language that was originally intended as symbolic must be read in the rich Biblical framework of poetic and symbolic language in order for us to grasp the literal meaning for the original authors, for their intended readers and for us in the 21st century."

[Thoughts on Tolkien @tolkienthoughts]

In 1936, Tolkien published a Christmas poem called "Noel" in the annual journal of a Catholic school near Oxford. For about 80 years the text of the poem was lost to history until Wayne Hammond and Christina Scull visited the school and found it in the archives. Here is the poem:
