What is the purpose and meaning of classical education?Imagine a world where education isn't just about information transfer but about shaping the soul, where students are nurtured to become virtuous, morally self-regulating citizens. Passing the Torch makes an energetic case for the critical role of classical Christian education in today's world. From the pre-Christian musings of Plato to the modern reflections of C. S. Lewis, Passing the Torch intertwines the wisdom of diverse epochs to argue for an educational renaissance grounded in classical Christian values.Passing the Torch takes educators and parents on a literary and philosophical pilgrimage that includes:Bibliographic Essays: Each essay serves as a gateway to key texts and influential thinkers, making it an invaluable guide for educators and homeschooling parents alike.Close Readings: Delve into thoughtful examinations of pivotal figures such as Augustine, Rousseau, and Dorothy Sayers offering an intimate understanding of the moral and educational imperatives they championed.Passionate Advocacy: Passing the Torch ignites a fervor for the value and necessity of classical Christian education that is both infectious and inspiring.
In an era where educational paradigms often prioritize technological proficiency over moral formation, Passing the Torch is a call to return to the roots of classical Christian education."Reflecting on the writings of literary and philosophical giants from Plato and Augustine to C.S. Lewis and Dorothy Sayers, Markos makes a strong case for the benefits of classical education over the modern public education system." - Library Journal Review, April 2025
