In this brief course, Dr. Stephen Turley traces and explains the tradition of the enduring transcendental ideals of truth, goodness, and beauty. If truth, goodness, and beauty are cornerstones of the classical tradition of education, then classical educators should know more about their origin, purpose, historical development, and present-day relevance.
