Climbing Parnassus : A New Apologia for Greek and Latin, Paperback / softback Book

Climbing Parnassus : A New Apologia for Greek and Latin Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In Climbing Parnassus, Tracy Lee Simmons presents a defense and vindication of the formative power of Greek and Latin.

He also shows how these languages have played a crucial role in the development of authentic Humanism, the foundation of the West’s cultural order and America’s understanding of itself as a union of citizens.

Simmons’s persuasive witness to the unique, now all-but-forgotten advantages of study in and of the classical languages constitutes a bracing reminder of the genuine aims of a truly liberal education.
