What subjects does the Great Books course address?
A. The Great Books largely re-integrate into one course what was so laboriously divided (dis-integrated) and taught separately in elementary grades. Analysis and synthesis are both necessary in a complete education. The Great Books run the gamut of subjects from the language arts (literature, vocabulary, English, composition) and science (e.g. Copernicus, Einstein) to geography (Ptolemy), philosophy (Socrates, Plato), cartography and history (Herodotus, Thucydides), social studies, and even math (Euclid, Nicomachus or Gerasa). It is possible to break the Great Books course down into some of these areas for grades if a state so requires.
