View of the Study of Latin and the Purpose of Learning
A discussion argues that studying Latin serves a purpose beyond mere mental discipline. The author insists education should aim at a genuine, valid purpose rather than a supposed usefulness.
Reading Versi and the joys of learning honor life
The passage argues genuine aims vary from reading Versi to playing a symphony or baking a pie. The test is whether a student gains mental discipline and can read and enjoy Vergil, or simply perform a task like playing music or cutting a pie. It notes people rarely read Vergil despite its value.

It argues large tree leaves offer hundreds of square yards of surface, with all plants acting similarly to reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide.
