The reason I mention Hicks is because the dialectic and the ancient Eros that he discusses there are I think the most important, and sadly neglected, aspects of classical teaching & learning (I’m still on a journey to understanding these things myself), and I’d LOVE to strive to better understand these things with friends right here than on my own or just with long-distance CiRCE folk!
I haven’t read it yet but am dying to! We should get together with my sister Hannah sometime: she is also homeschooling and local and just read Norma and Nobility I believe! Lutheran classically education is so unique and so fun in my opinion, but it’s also all I’ve ever known so it will be fun to hear your perspectives.
Ellie! Meant to comment on this ages ago, but I love this. Have you read Hicks “Norms & Nobility” yet? I’ve been itching to read that with a fellow mom who is local and classically-minded and wants to homeschool (in the best sense of what a robust, fruitful place a home should be!)
I’m also curious to talk about what a distinctively “Lutheran” classical education might look like, since I’ve only ever experienced Reformed Classical Ed.

Girl, let’s do it! I need all the Lutheran wisdom I can get 😁
