SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14:

11:00 am Virtue In The Chronicles Of Narnia

Dr. Markos shows The Chronicles of Narnia embody an understanding of classical and theological virtues, virtues we need to restore to the rightful place at the center of education.

12:00 pm Lunch (Included in cost)

1:00 pm C.S. Lewis And The Tao

Markos focuses on the arguments Lewis makes for the existence of a universal moral code to argue for the existence of God. He then shows how Lewis moves from Theism to Christianity.

2:00 pm Men Without Chests: The Dangers Of A Values-Free Education

In The Abolition of Man, Lewis discusses what happens when society abandons its duty to educate its children in accordance with fixed moral/ethical standards. Dr. Markos shows how a values-free approach to education kills virtue, wonder, and courage.
