GB 3: Modern Times

Great Books 3: This cycle covers from the beginning of the Enlightenment to the Present.  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.
