Von der hinteren Coverseite

"A magnificent introduction to the Western liberal arts tradition"

This reader with commentary helps Christians understand great texts from the Western intellectual tradition on themes related to theology, science, politics, and human nature.

"Reeves et al. combine their expertise across various disciplines to provide what might be best labeled a great-texts primer, which affords key insights into how noteworthy thinkers across time and contexts sought to answer life's big, enduring questions related to the natural world, human nature, politics, God, and more. This book will be a helpful resource for Christians endeavoring to participate competently in the ongoing dialogue of the Christian intellectual tradition as it is shaped by the great debates of past and present."
--Perry L. Glanzer, Baylor University

"A concise yet nuanced introduction to the intellectual landscape we find ourselves navigating. Anyone interested in determining where opportunities for faithful Christian existence may reside should not only read this volume but also consider the insightful ways the selections are organized."
--Todd C. Ream, Indiana Wesleyan University

"A much-needed antidote in today's educational landscape that privileges vocational training and STEM learning over the humanities and social sciences. This reader provides students with excellent introductions to primary texts with reflective questions to guide them in their readings. A thoughtful and engaging book for Christians who are committed to liberal education."
--Lee Trepanier, D'Amour College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Assumption University

"For those of us searching for a life worth living, nothing is so formative and beneficial as a liberal arts education. This volume provides a magnificent introduction to the Western liberal arts tradition, illuminating it from a Christian perspective that fosters key intellectual virtues like empathy, critical sense, and humility."
--Gijsbert van den Brink, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam
