Lost Tools of Learning

I idea readers mightiness similar to know close an article yesteryear Brad Birzer (author of a skilful majority on Christopher Dawson) over on the "What Might Help Hold Us Together. Also recommended is The End of Literature yesteryear Ben Lockerd.

Barbara J. Elliott writes on the same blog. In her The Power of Beauty, she says:
Art has the twin functions of reflecting a civilization in addition to shaping it. The work that contemporary artists seem upwards is a hard one: how to limited pregnant to a the world which has give-up the ghost culturally over-stimulated yesteryear the spectacular, hyper-sexualized, dumbed-down yesteryear inanity, in addition to increasingly antagonistic to manifestations of Christianity. Some of the artists who are hither this calendar week scrap to believe that the vocation every bit an creative somebody – specially a Christian creative somebody – has whatever pregnant or value at all. They are at the border of redefining in addition to creating anew amongst moral imagination a vision of the True, the Good in addition to the Beautiful that has been all only exterminated inwards Western culture.
She goes on to analyse the defects in addition to influence of modernism inwards the arts, in addition to calls for a "second culture". I teach nervous when words similar "conservative" are used every bit labels, in addition to then it is worth mentioning that these guys are inwards the tradition of Russell Kirk, Christopher Dawson in addition to T.S. Eliot.
