Liberal Education as the Art of Coming Unstuck

Original: Barnacles: Liberal Education & the Art of Coming Unstuck

An essay titled 'Barnacles: Liberal Education & the Art of Coming Unstuck' argues that a liberal education functions like scraping barnacles from a hull, freeing minds encrusted by habit, ideology and narrow specialisation. Written from a conservative humanist perspective, it presents the classical curriculum as a way to reattach readers to enduring questions and restart intellectual momentum.

Why now: Ongoing debate over the value and purpose of a liberal arts education keeps essays defending it in circulation.
