The Place of Foreign Languages in a Curriculum for Liberal Education
Moravcsik, Julius; Juilland, Alphonse
Bulletin of the Association of Departments of Foreign Languages, 8, 4, 10-12, May 77
The study of foreign languages in the liberal arts curriculum is defended. Foreign languages reveal the rules characterizing cognitive human activities; they help us to understand both common bonds of humanity and varieties of human behavior. Language study should be central to humanities study. (CHK)
