Here are my top five:1. A Defence of Classical Education, by R.W. Livingstone, 1917.

She began her life as a member of the royal family with no clear path to the throne and probably no thought on her part that there would be. Then, through an event almost unthinkable in the world of royalty and in the world of that time—the abdication of a British sovereign—she became the heir to the throne, to whichhttps://vereloqui.blogspot.com/2022/09/our-royal-double-standard.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Martin Cothran)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11542449.post-7119482198493047884Wed, 07 Sep 2022 20:43:00 +00002022-09-07T17:19:23.186-04:00There are many ways to argue. One of them is not to argue at all. This seems to be William Michael's preferred method. Michael and I have been arguing about the definition of classical education (sort of), and whether anyone but him has any business talking about it. His preferred method for making his case seems to consist of making an assertion (e.g. that I don't know what classical education https://vereloqui.blogspot.com/2022/09/knowing-liberal-arts.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Martin Cothran)1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11542449.post-3419647390716963611Wed, 31 Aug 2022 15:35:00 +00002022-08-31T12:07:52.869-04:00Of the seven points William Michael makes in response to my response to his critique, one of the statements he makes is this: "There is no evidence of anyone ever studying Homer as part of any school curriculum in classical or Christian history." I'll have to hand it to him: he's doesn't pussyfoot around.
