In The Abolition of Man, Lewis addresses some developments of grave concern in the area of education. As background for understanding Lewis's points, in this episode we will look at the history of the liberal arts tradition, the contributions of St. Augustine and his idea of rightly-ordered loves to education, the historic role of the Church in education, the importance of the study of philosophy, and the pernicious influence of Pragmatism on the educational enterprise. We will also look at Psalm 19 and its beautiful linkage of Natural Law and the Word of God.
