The Cause - Rob Pirie
Please join me in embarking on the Harvard Classics Series by Dr. Charles Elliot. This series dates back to around 1910 and is a collection of literature that I believe needs to be revived and rediscovered. I look forward to reading and discussing all 50 volumes with you as we learn about the great ideas of those who came before us. In this series, we will dive into Greek and Roman history, the American Founders, works from Francis Bacon, John Milton, and many more. We will cover Shakespeare and Chaucer and also some fictional works like Don Quixote which are all included in the Harvard Classics.
We will also review other books on this podcast that fit the classical education theme.
This series is being created for those passionate about classical education and as a supplement to homeschool curriculums. I truly hope these classical works of literature bring you as much joy as they do me.
Feel free to reach out with any questions as I would love to hear from you!

How to APPLY "The Fragments" of EPICTETUS To LIFE: Harvard Classics - HC2 Ep8
The Fragments of Epictetus are some great words of wisdom from a great stoic. Sadly there are not many of the fragments that were saved so we only have a few to read through. Epictetus's wisdom shines through them though. Hope you enjoy the Fragments of Epictetus.
