GB 1: Ancient & Classical Times

Great Books 1: This course covers the three great, ancient contributors to the West: the Hebrews, the Greeks, and the Romans. It combines philosophy, theology, and literature readings, and is intended for 7th–9th grade students. The class format is that of a "great books" seminar--students read primary works from the great authors of Western Civilization and then discuss them in a round-table format, thus joining what has been referred to as the "Great Conversation."  The course uses our own Traditio Nostra curriculum.
