Students Need Modern Mathematics AND the Classical Quadrivium


Listen Later

This article explains why students today must not choose between modern mathematics and the classical Quadrivium, but instead fulfill modern academic requirements efficiently while adding the deeper, wisdom-oriented study of classical mathematics. Drawing from the tradition of Nicomachus, Euclid, Boethius, and Ptolemy, the article outlines how the Classical Liberal Arts Academy restores the four mathematical arts—Arithmetic, Geometry, Music, and Astronomy—as essential disciplines for the formation of the intellect and will. It challenges shallow educational trends and offers a compelling case for families seeking both academic success and the pursuit of truth and goodness through the study of classical mathematics.
