Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The picture of St. Augustine that emerges from these selections is not simply one of an educational theorist of historical magnitude, but one of a man intimately involved in the search for truth and deeply committed to the art of teaching. The educational problems he discusses arise from his own experience as a teacher; in subjecting them to the critical scrutiny of his own keen intelligence, he brings into focus for the modern teacher and the student of education much that is of permanent and practical value"--Back cover.

Book excerpt: Happiness and Wisdom contributes to ongoing debates about the nature of Augustine's early development, and argues that Augustine's vision of the soul's ascent through the liberal arts is an attractive and basically coherent view of learning, which, while not wholly novel, surpasses both classical and earlier patristic renderings of the aims of education.
Book Synopsis On Education, Formation, Citizenship and the Lost Purpose of Learning by : Joseph Clair
Download or read book On Education, Formation, Citizenship and the Lost Purpose of Learning written by Joseph Clair and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading Augustine presents concise, personal readings of St. Augustine of Hippo from leading philosophers and religion scholars. The looming crisis in higher education appears to be a matter of soaring costs and crushing student debt, but the problem is actually much deeper. It is a crisis of soul; a question of the very purpose of learning and the type of people that our educational system produces. Today, in the age of academic hyper-specialization and professional knowledge, the moral and spiritual purposes of learning have been eclipsed by a shallow view of career and success. On Education, Formation, Citizenship, and the Lost Purpose of Learning turns to the influential figure Augustine of Hippo to explore how he saved the liberal arts at the end of the Roman Empire and how his inspiring vision can do the same for higher education today. It offers a roadmap for reviving the soul of education – presenting concrete ways that the intellectual practices and economic enterprise of learning can lead once more to a fulfilled life of knowing God and loving others.

Book Synopsis St Augustine by : Ryan N. S. Topping
Download or read book St Augustine written by Ryan N. S. Topping and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-23 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After setting Augustine's thought firmly within the context of his life and times, Ryan Topping examines in turn the causes of education (the purposes, pedagogy, curriculum, and limits of learning) as Augustine understood them. Augustine's towering influence over Medieval and Renaissance theorists – from Hugh of St Victor, to Aquinas, to Erasmus – is traced. The book concludes by drawing Augustine into dialogue with contemporary philosophers, exploring the influence of his meditations on higher education and suggesting how his ideas can reinvigorate for our generation the project of liberal learning.
Book Synopsis On the Trinity by : Saint Augustine of Hippo
Download or read book On the Trinity written by Saint Augustine of Hippo and published by Aeterna Press. This book was released on with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The following dissertation concerning the Trinity, as the reader ought to be informed, has been written in order to guard against the sophistries of those who disdain to begin with faith, and are deceived by a crude and perverse love of reason. Now one class of such men endeavor to transfer to things incorporeal and spiritual the ideas they have formed, whether through experience of the bodily senses, or by natural human wit and diligent quickness, or by the aid of art, from things corporeal; so as to seek to measure and conceive of the former by the latter.

Book Synopsis Augustine and Liberal Education by : Kim Paffenroth
Download or read book Augustine and Liberal Education written by Kim Paffenroth and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-01 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2000: Augustine of Hippo (354-430 CE) - Bishop, theologian, philosopher, and rhetorician - has left a rich legacy for reflection upon relationships between Christianity and culture, between Christian catechesis and liberal education, and between faith and reason. Contemporary educational institutions have begun to explore their roots, digging into their intellectual traditions for the resources for renewal of liberal education. Augustine and Liberal Education sheds light on liberal education past and present, from an Augustinian point of view. Ranging from historical investigations of particular themes and issues in the thought of Saint Augustine, to reflections on the role of tradition and community and the challenges and opportunities facing universities in the next century, the contributors return to the sources of traditional reflection whilst exploring contemporary issues of education and 'the good life'. Essays on Augustinian inquiry in medieval and modern eras address critical questions on the role of rhetoric, reading, and authority in education, on the social context of learning, and on the relationship between liberal education and properly Christian catechesis. Contemporary questions on liberal education from philosophical, political, theological, and ethical perspectives are then explored in the essays which move from the past to the present. This book offers a valuable contribution to the growing scholarship on Catholic universities and on Augustine of Hippo, engaging in 'Augustinian inquiry' and pointing to possibilities for renewal in liberal education in the twenty-first century.

Book Synopsis Learning to Serve: A Book for New Altar Boys by : Father Charles J. Carmody
Download or read book Learning to Serve: A Book for New Altar Boys written by Father Charles J. Carmody and published by St. Augustine Academy Press. This book was released on 2015-09-18 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1961 classic contains all the valuable information that a young man needs in order to learn how to serve the traditional Latin Mass-yet it is so much more than just "nuts and bolts." After reading this book, boys will come away not only with an understanding of the parts of the Mass and the role they must fulfill; they will also have a true sense of the privilege with which they will be entrusted, and the ways in which they must advance in order to be worthy of that honor. Each of these 25 illustrated lessons therefore begins with a discussion of the character and responsibilities of those who assist at the altar. This done, a portion of the Latin responses are taught in phonetic form, and after this rubrics are introduced. Each chapter then ends with review questions. Useful in a classroom setting or for independent study, "Learning to Serve" is an indispensable resource for all prospective altar servers and those who are charged with their instruction.
