Barnacles: Liberal Education and the Art of Coming Unstuck
Original: Barnacles: Liberal Education & the Art of Coming Unstuck
An essay published by The Imaginative Conservative argues that liberal education functions like the removal of barnacles, freeing minds that have become encrusted with habit, assumption and utilitarian thinking. It presents a classical defence of the humanities, suggesting education's purpose is to help people come unstuck and think afresh rather than simply acquire job skills.
Why now: The essay offers a timely classical defence of liberal education at a moment when the humanities are widely debated.
