Apr. 18, 2009 - We Book review : The Great Books from TOS
The Old Schoolhouse offers a spectacular We-book, The Great Books: A TOS Interview with Classical Educator Fritz Hinrichs is a beneficial, educational, and instructional We-book available for less than $2. Great books are works of literature that stand the test of time. They are true literature, not just “fly by night” top of the bestseller’s list book. Many homeschooling parents express interest in the use and instruction of great books in their homeschooling practice, but feel apprehensive at undertaking such a task. This handbook from TOS offers handy advice from an experienced classical educator, Fritz Hinrichs, including an explanation of the philosophy behind classical homeschooling, examples of great books in history, and the potential benefits derived from a rigorous course of study including great books. Mr. Hinrichs also offers advice on creating a “must read” list for handy use in the instruction of great books in the homeschooling environment.
God Bless!
