Educating with Chesterton

This seminar introduces G. K. Chesterton's ideas on the person, the family, the imagination, freedom, and the purpose of education. Students will learn to translate these ideas into concrete criteria for their teaching work, also engaging in dialogue with the Catholic educational tradition and the framework of the encyclical Divini illius magistri.
