Paideia Today

Wil Friesen

Paideia Today is a podcast in which Dr. Scott Masson and Dr. Bill Friesen, professors of English, discuss the great works of western literature. We do so from a now largely lost classical perspective, attempting to illustrate why 2800 years of the greatest thinkers valued these works above all others as keys to understanding the human condition.

Reviews

5.0 out of 5 stars from 14 ratings
  • Good info on great authors

    I found this podcast from Scott Massen’s three part video on C.S. Lewis’s “The Discarded Image”. There are lively but dense discussions on historically important literature, not only the books, but also the poetry and plays of important authors.
