Patterson, W. Brown – Liberal Education, 1981
Five Renaissance humanists associated with the court of Henry VIII (Erasmus, More, Vives, Pace, and Elyot) developed a rationale for the liberal arts that has important implications for the 1980s. The view can help define an educated person and show the importance of the teaching of moral values. (Author/MSE)
