"Why I Teach Plato to Plumbers: Liberal Arts Aren't Just for the Elite."
I can see why back then that the liberal arts was only taught to the elite. They had so much time on their hands they didn't know what else to do, so become better humans to be able to think for themselves, that is exactly what they did. But that is all changed now, anyone can study liberal arts. Just because you are not rich, or wealthy and come from a high class family, you can study the liberal arts. Literally anyone from a profession can do it, janitors, plumbers, factory workers. You can fall in love with it, and study it on your own, or maybe even go forward in life with what you felt passionate about.

Why I Teach Plato to Plumbers
ReplyDeleteLiberal Arts was considered a sacred but very sought after Art, its such a broad and wide variety of Arts it teaches "academic subjects such as literature, philosophy, mathematics, and social and physical sciences as distinct from professional and technical subjects." It's good to know that liberal Arts are being taught to everyone no matter what race or occupation you in everyone can get taught Liberal Arts.
